Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 23 September 2026
7. Deputy Maurice Quinlivan asked the Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment to provide details if Ardnacrusha generation station failed to produce electricity in the years 2022 to 2025 and to date in 2026. [67374/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraArdnacrusha power station is Ireland’s largest river hydroelectric scheme at 86MW, and has been in operation for nearly 100 years. The day-to-day operations of Ardnacrusha are the responsibility of the generation company ESB Generation & Trading. As such, this is an operational matter for ESB and not one in which I have any function.
The Deputy should contact the ESB directly in relation to matters pertaining to the operation of their generation fleet. The ESB may be contacted at oireachtas@esb.ie.
