Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 October 2021
96. Deputy Brian Leddin asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications if information will be provided on the change of timelines for auctions under the renewable electricity support scheme 2; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47478/21]
View answerDates for the main milestones for the second onshore Renewable Electricity Support Scheme auction (RESS 2) were published in June. However, this timetable was subject to change based on the final approved RESS 2 terms and conditions.
My Department is in the process of finalising the terms and conditions for RESS-2. This process includes development of a revised timeline, which is being developed in conjunction with the RESS auction operator EirGrid. I expect to be able to publish further details on the auction timetable later this month.
