Why would we need to import energy if we had a surplus?
we will export when we have a surplus
import when we have a deficit
Weāll ram electricity down their french throats even if they donāt want it at that time, and charge them for it.
Lets see
Metro getting built
Interconnector with France
Dart North & Dart West orders in
interconnector with France
More renewable generation being built
Grants for retrofits & solar massively increased
Ceiling on price for wind and sun renewable energy
thats just in the last 3 months

France can send it on to other countries mate
FFG are knocking it out of the park
We have spent billions getting this farce of a supply to 15%. We had the second lowest electricity price in Europe until the regulator was formed and pumped up the price to make wind viable. Within two years we had the second highest electricity price in Europe. Weād easily have 2 nuclear power plants up and running for the overall cost of this shite, and the country is visually destroyed with the monstrosities. In 20 years time it will be looked upon as another great green policy failure along with diesel cars they flooded the country with.

EU negotiator on something or other at COP? Thatās a great record.
The retro fitting scheme has been an abject failure mate.
Itās only the lowest of low information simpletons who think wind energy is a viable efficient solution. It provided 47.4% of the countries energy needs at 3am last Tuesday morning when eveyone was asleep!
Whats the solution really? Firing these cunts out of a cannon? Unfortunately we have to actually live through their braindead ideas and pretend they work. Itās depressing

thats actually a good point, why isnt anyone anywhere talking about an interconnector to France- grrrrrrrrrr
Nuclear is ok as long as itās in somebody elseās country
as Eamon Ryan said, it takes years to get a bike lane built in this country, what chance of getting a nuclear power plant built in the next 10 years,
if it was the other way around, and we planned to build a power plant- people would rightly ask, why not build an interconnector to France
It was positive other than the BER guy. The BER cert element of the grant needs to be streamlined
I wasnāt full retrofit - just attic. The contractors were excellent.

Some day in the future, up to 3% of Franceās electric blankets will be powered by Irish wind, for a short whileeen.
