It might not be the ESB Networks side of it but I was looking at the energy figures. Basically, we brought in a lot of power through the interconnector. That is imported to put it simply. That could be coming from fossil fuel or renewable sources. We then claim to have reduced emissions. Is it not someone else ticking the box on emissions?
