Committee on Climate, Environment and Energy
Carbon Budget: Climate Change Advisory Council

Pa Daly (Kerry, Sinn Fein)
I raise the Commission for Regulation of Utilities, CRU, opinion given recently about data centres not having the obligation to ensure their own connections or their own energy sources. I see Deputy Heneghan nodding his head. No doubt he is going to mention private lines. What do witnesses feel about that issue in the context of the emission reductions envisaged in the carbon budgets? They are swallowing up all of the increased renewable energy being delivered.
