Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate, Environment and Energy

Review of Storm Éowyn and Storm Preparedness: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Nicholas Tarrant:

We do for some of our own facilities. Obviously, we need to be able to get power to our own facilities. However, if we take the broader picture around critical infrastructure, if a particular site in one of the worst affected areas in the west of Ireland does not have power because a tree has come down on an overhead line, if backup generation is needed for that particular location it is the provider itself that looks after it.
