I find it interesting that when had Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, SEAI, representatives in here at one stage about district heating and the potential of data centres to input into that, they did not know how many data centres there were or the capacity or energy demand of the data centres. They could not find any of that information. They actually pulled from a lobby group’s website that there are approximately 70. Does the CRU have that data?

Does the commission know how many data centres there are, where they are located, what their energy and water demand is and what conditions attach to their planning permissions? Does the CRU have a register of data centres?
