There's a heightened risk of energy blackouts here this Winter.
That's according to the chief operations officer of Eirgrid, who is being questioned at the Oireachtas Committee on Environment and Climate Action.
The hearing is being addressed by the Environment Minister, Eirgrid and the Commission for the Regulation of Utilities over growing concerns over electricity supplies.
Rodney Doyle from Eirgrid was asked by Social Democrats TD Jennifer Whitmore what the chances of blackouts were.
