Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Engagement with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities

Mr. Jim Gannon:

It would be good to understand that. We can engage with our colleagues at ACER as to the level of hedging insight and oversight. It is worth noting that the electricity market review that the Commission is undertaking has indicated that there may be an ability provided to energy regulatory authorities or other competent authorities in countries to consider whether appropriate hedging strategies have been put in place.
