Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

General Oversight of EirGrid: Discussion

Mr. Mark Foley:

I repeat that if we had got capacity from the market as prescribed by the regulators in 2021, we would never have had temporary emergency generation and we would not be having this conversation. That is a fact. A few hundred megawatts of market related generation did not arrive. That is why we have temporary emergency generation and we will continue to have it because it has is still not arriving.
