Use of Agricultural Land for Renewable Energy: ESB Networks
Mr. Nicholas Tarrant:
I will pass to my colleague, Mr. Rossiter, to say more on this topic. I will deal directly with the Leas-Chathaoirleach's question. Once the applications are processed by us and accepted by the customer, it falls to the installation company. Many installation companies are working across Ireland and they are very professional organisations. It is up to them to plan their resources and to install these projects. If we take, for example, a mini-generation project on a farm, it would take a couple of days to install. I will ask Mr. Rossiter to cover a few of the points.
