Environmental Protection Agency (Emergency Electricity Generation) (Amendment) Bill 2023: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2023-03-09
============================================================

Lynn Boylan (SF), Agricultural Panel

The Minister of State made a point about who powers down or the hierarchy on the grid. Is it not the case currently, with regard to electricity, that households are first to be disconnected in terms of burnouts and businesses are last? It is the opposite for gas, as households are prioritised over businesses.
