On Wednesday 20th February a delegation from the North East Pylons Pressure campaign (NEPP) will brief the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Energy and Natural Resources in Leinster House on the campaign’s proposal to put EirGrid high power cables underground.
Wednesday’s meeting is the third in a series of public hearings by the Committee into EirGrid’s plan to string high powered electricity cables on pylons across the North East.
NEPP will also make a submission to the international consultants to be appointed by the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources to report on overhead lines versus underground cabling in the development of the national electricity grid.
