Energy Regulations: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (16 Nov 2022)

Bríd Smith: ...from the Rural Independent Group. It is refreshingly progressive and we will fully support it. The motion is unusual, coming from the quarter it does, in that it does not promote fossil fuels, LNG, Barryroe Offshore Energy or anything else. They are completely absent from it and I am delighted to see that because it is progressive. The motion calls for a reduction in the use of...

Carol Nolan: ..., allow people to have greater measures of control over how and in what manner they choose to access energy sources. We have called for greater energy security in terms of offshore gas and LNG. We have called for urgent action in the context of reopening the power stations at Shannonbridge and Lough Ree. We know how capable of action this Government is when it wants to bring in...

Credit Guarantee (Amendment) Bill 2022: Second Stage (Resumed) (9 Nov 2022)

Michael Collins: ...were all quietened with the click of a finger because they were given true and honest answers. Many of them do not want to hear those answers but they are the facts. There are proposals for liquefied natural gas, LNG, floating gas terminals. LNG is a very clean fuel that could perhaps be put through the pipes in Kinsale, provided the Government does not fill them with concrete, as it...

Written Answers — Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Energy Policy (8 Nov 2022)

Eamon Ryan: ...Germany. This shortfall in gas supplies has resulted in record high gas prices. The European Union’s primary response has been to address the supply-demand imbalance by attracting more supplies through LNG and introducing Council Regulations to: - store gas for the winter ahead; - reduce gas demand; - reduce electricity demand; This approach has seen some...

Energy Security: Statements (27 Oct 2022) See 4 other results from this debate

Brian Leddin: ...have been talked about for a long time and I suspect it has not been. Speaking of simplistic narratives, there is a simplistic narrative with respect to the need for liquefied natural gas, LNG, and fossil fuel storage in this country. The energy security review published in September makes clear that it does not support a commercial LNG storage facility and I subscribe to that view....

Development (Emergency Electricity Generation) Bill 2022: Second Stage (26 Oct 2022) See 2 other results from this debate

Marian Harkin: ...legislation in place but also to take emergency steps to help provide a more secure supply of energy in the short, medium and long term. We have heard of the potential for offshore floating LNG terminals but the problem is there are only 37 of these floating terminals in the world. How feasible and doable is it that we could manage one of those in the short term? One Deputy after...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (25 Oct 2022)

Micheál Martin: .... No one saw the war in Ukraine coming and the degree to which Europe would have to reduce, very rapidly, its dependence on Russian gas and oil, with countries scrambling all over looking for LNG across the board. We import the majority of our gas from the UK, which also take supplies from Norway. Some 75% of our gas from the UK and 25% comes from Corrib. We have developed well in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: COP27: Discussion (25 Oct 2022) See 1 other result from this debate

Mr. Jerry McEvilly: On the energy security review, one of the main conclusions by the independent consultants is that they did not short-list a commercial liquefied natural gas, LNG, plant either onshore or floating. Neither did they short-list further offshore exploration. Broadly speaking, they rejected these options for two reasons. First, because of the risk of emissions lock-in,...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Youth Perspectives on the Circular Economy and COP27, including Climate Justice and Energy: Discussion (21 Oct 2022)

Paul Murphy: ...targets that are inadequate and now we are going to miss them. The Government, or large parts of it at least, is trying to push ahead with further fossil fuel infrastructure, in the form of LNG terminals, at a time of this climate emergency that we declared. It has overridden, undemocratically, the decision of South Dublin County Council to say it did not want any more data centres or...

It also includes provisions to increase solidarity and security of supply and measures aimed at dampening energy prices including development of a new benchmark for trading LNG in particular, and working with member states to develop ways to limit the impact of high gas prices on electricity. Flanking measures being proposed include extension of the temporary...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: EU-level Policy Response to Current Energy Security Issues: Discussion (19 Oct 2022) See 5 other results from this debate

.... We need increased permitting and to sort out the bottlenecks in the supply chains. I am not an expert on the Irish market, but I think both of these also apply to Ireland. The final thing is diversifying supplies. We are building more LNG capacity terminals, but these things take time. We have gotten a lot of LNG from the US since the crisis began, but we will not have enough for...

Electricity Costs (Domestic Electricity Accounts) Emergency Measures and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Second Stage (Resumed) (11 Oct 2022) See 1 other result from this debate

Carol Nolan: ...The Bill does nothing in signalling a change in our fundamental approach to energy security, which is nothing other than a sham. Instead, the Government insists it is doubling down on renewables and refuses even to consider options such as LNG, gas or oil exploration. The power plants at Shannonbridge and Lanesborough need to be reopened. We need to have a sense of pragmatism and...

Electricity Costs (Domestic Electricity Accounts) Emergency Measures and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Second Stage (11 Oct 2022)

Brendan Griffin: ...the making redundant of which is long overdue. I would like to see some fairness for people living in rural communities being introduced to the equation. I restate my support for the liquefied natural gas, LNG, project. I note the Minister of State is not the biggest supporter of that project, but for energy security on this island in the medium term, it is an important opportunity for...

Carol Nolan: ...to prices. The Government remains committed to pursuing a precarious and unstable source of power in the form of renewables. It has signalled no clear switch to the funding of liquefied natural gas, LNG, or gas and oil exploration. All of this means that, through its own inaction, Government has prolonged the energy crisis for households and businesses and made it even more certain that...
