Consultation on Ireland's and Northern Ireland's electricity market reform plans

The European Commission has opened a consultation on proposed electricity market reforms in Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Aimed at gauging opinion from public and private stakeholders, the consultation will feed into the Commission’s assessment of the planned reforms.

Under the Electricity Market Regulation 2019/943, Member States are required to outline reforms to their electricity market if and when they identify likely supply shortages.

Responses to this consultation on Ireland's and Northern Ireland's plans should be submitted by 7 February 2020.
