- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: No, I always look at deadlines. At the end of the day, the charging points are key if we are to expedite this, as is the infrastructure of the local authorities. I will go back to Mr. Meally on the people charging at home. What grants do they get?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Roughly what does a home charger cost?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Is there any area where that can be a bit like Irish Water, dare I say it, and you can have charging points being brought to the door? Will they just run off their home supply? Is that how it will evolve?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: A further point for Dr. O'Grady relates to second-hand cars. There is huge scope there. Is a defined policy being drawn up in that area?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: What is the timeframe on that?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: That is great. I have a final point for Ms Ward regarding ESB e-cars. What is the overall role of the ESB in the roll-out of this network? Is there another section within the ESB that will have an involvement here as well?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Do you link back into ESB Networks to make certain that where you are looking at charging points it is able to deal with the supply issue?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: At this moment in time, ESB Networks is by a mile the biggest operator in the market.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: I will go back to Mr. Brennan on the hybrid versus battery situation. Will he explain that to me? I am the ordinary Joe Bloggs who really wants to understand this in a very unscientific way.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: That is correct, offshore power.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: What does Mr. Brennan mean by "efficiency"?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: In terms of climate change-----
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Which is more carbon-friendly?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Does Mr. Brennan think hydrogen could have a role in aviation?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Why?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Can Dr. O'Grady deal with the roll-out of the network to ensure the infrastructure is there for whoever is coming in, with e-cars etc., to tap into it. Who regulates the cost at which they pay for electricity? How does that work?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Is there a bottleneck there? Would that be a basis that would slow down the roll-out of the network?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: How quickly until the Department will have a full map of the network requirements?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: Fine.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Strategy: Discussion (13 Jul 2022)
Kieran O'Donnell: I would like to return to a matter referred to by Mr. Meally. What is the saving per year of running a full EV car as opposed to a fossil fuel car?
