work is for those who don't know how to fish.

@BobFlavin Best of luck 👍

[markskenny @feroxman]

@WillDowningComm Any ideas where to watch them in ireland ?

[markskenny @feroxman]

@EamonRyan Wind generation at 48mw out of 4500mw installed. So turn off the gas and tell me how you get on.

[markskenny @feroxman]

So much for wind power covering demand

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle Neither is renewables.we have about 4000mw wind capacity installed but if Switch of the gas and country will close down.

[Brian Gitt @BrianGitt]

The countries with the highest percentage of renewable energy rely on hydro & geothermal NOT wind & solar.

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle @KeithMillsD7 @greenparty_ie So what's your answer to power the country today ? An interconnect to France using nuclear power ?

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle Agree that hard choice have to be made but still no vat or carbon tax on aviation fuel. It appears unbalanced. Alternatives also to expensive for the working class who get hit everyway.

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle Yet aviation fuel has zero vat while home heating oil has . Doesn't make sense

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle Averages doesn't cover the 5000wm demand today dispatchable power does.

@ESBGroup @EamonRyan @NCH_Music @Dept_ECC Can you sort out this mess first . https://t.co/7gUoC7XREi

[Elaine McGoff @ElaineMcgoff]

Let this sink in, with all the talk of planning reform.

In 2019 the EU Court of Justice found this windfarm to be legally non-compliant

Since then,the State has been fined €15,000 per day, over €17 million so far.

& they still haven't fixed it.

@sendboyle @ExCllrRedmond Sounds like albert Einstein's definition of insanity: “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome.” all our eggs are in one basket that of intermittent wind.

[markskenny @feroxman]

@sendboyle @IrishTimes Still need backup dispatchable power and we're say no to all other forms of generation. Sweden use nuclear, Denmark coal and Norway are lucky enough to have hyro which I think is a non runner here re fish . So what our plan for the 20 to 40% dispatchable?
