Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities

Ms Aoife MacEvilly:

It might be worth mentioning that we collect retail market monitoring data from suppliers. On an ongoing basis we have regular access to the same data all the time. We are more comfortable with that. We had to collect data on ad hocbasis from the system operators in line with the questions the Deputy asked. We were trying to understand what she was looking for to provide it. It is not information we hold but we would genuinely be happy to sit down with her. We know she is very interested in this. We need to try to understand what we can provide, what we can get from ESB Networks and EirGrid which will help.
