- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Data Centres (28 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: I thank the Minister of State. There is no official record of the number of data centres in Ireland. We are reliant on consulting companies, such as Bitpower, which reported in June 2023 that there are 82 data centres operating in Ireland - this is an increase of seven in one year - and that 77 of them are in the Dublin region. Bitpower estimates that 14 centres are under construction with...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Data Centres (28 Sep 2023)

Equally importantly, what issues, if any, have been raised by his Department on energy security concerns given the plans for the three data centres, and the cumulative effect of these centres and all of the other centres?
- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Renewable Energy Generation (28 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: I welcome that it has gone into the non-competitive section and that the Department is working on this. My difficulty is that I have no analysis before me as to what happened in RESS 1 and 2, where community groups were involved. Is there documentation, data or an analysis of what did and did not work which led the Department to what theoretically would be a very welcome change in terms of...
