Ireland could potentially experience blackouts this winter, according to a senior research officer from the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI).
Speaking on RTE’s Morning Ireland today, Dr Muireann Lynch said that supply is the tightest it has been for “a good while.”
Echoing previous statements by the Tanaiste in relation to diverting use from peak times, Dr Lynch said: "A lot of it comes down to whether or not customers can shift their demand from the peak times. If there are demand interruptions, they'll almost certainly occur at peak times."
