Climate Change Targets 2026-2030: Electricity Sector

Mr. Brian Brady:

I want to correct something Deputy Heneghan said earlier. He mentioned Storm Éowyn and that there were no faults on the transmission networks. That is not correct. As the transmission system works at a higher standard of redundancy, there is redundant supply available to restore power. Customers would not see the effect of it but certainly we had transmission crews deployed during the storm, particularly in Mayo and Galway, to make repairs on the transition network.
