Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

General Oversight of EirGrid: Discussion

Mr. Mark Foley:

It was projects of any scale. Few projects have actually made it through. If the basic parameterisation - I do not want to use the word "design" because design suggests it is fatally flawed and cannot be fixed - had been appropriate, we would have seen a significant number of projects being successfully negotiated through the auction and contracted for.
