Energy Policy
Dail Éireann — 2023-04-27
============================================================

Darren O'Rourke (SF), Meath East

I refer to the timeline for this and the active consideration being given to the options set out in the energy security review. There is an understanding that the trilemma of energy security, affordability and sustainability have to be balanced out. It is a question of how to balance them out. What weighting and prioritisation will be given to each leg of the stool, given the identified risks, such as the environmental impact of fracked gas and LNG and the impact of lock-in on affordability?
