Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
General Oversight of EirGrid: Discussion
Mr. Mark Foley:
I can assure the Deputy that we have no concerns, and we are responsible for running the power system and ensuring that the lights stay on. We have no concerns whatsoever that there is going to be an unpredicted exceptional increase in demand in the next years. I can say that with absolute honesty and in terms of the capability of Dr. Ryan's team to analyse forward projections and to work with those customers who have ramp-up plans. I can assure the committee that that is the case. We would not put it out there if we did not believe that was the case.
