Why is peak time important?

  • During the peak demand periods, if there is pressure on gas supply, or when wind generation is low, or generators or interconnectors are out of service, there is a risk of insufficient generation to meet demand.
  • Given Ireland’s dependency on imported fossil fuels and geo-political activities at present there is a possibility of electricity generation shortages at peak times this winter.
