I really thought Shell would come to the rescue here and develop the oil and gas sector , no hope if they are already walking , what a mess , Ryan should resign now!

Ryan strikes out once again! One man wrecking ball...

Ireland’s energy transition is shambolic and in complete disarray, this will send shockwaves through the energy sector, industry, international investment and beyond, as Shell are now diverting their investment towards the UK,..GL S

Exclusive: Shell withdraws from major Irish offshore wind projects

Shell, the multinational energy giant, is pulling out of the Irish renewables sector in a potentially significant blow to the country’s climate ambitions, the Business Post can reveal.

The move represents a u-turn by the company, which just last November agreed a deal to acquire a 51 per cent share in the Western Star Floating wind project off the coast of Clare from Simply Blue Group, a Cork-based energy company.

Shell’s withdrawal from the Irish renewables sector represents a potentially significant blow to Ireland’s target of achieving an 80 per cent cut in energy emissions.

Equinor, the Norwegian energy giant, confirmed last year that it was exiting the Irish market, citing frustrations with the regulatory and planning process here.
One source said Shell was focusing its efforts on countries with more accommodating legislative frameworks.

As Business Plus mag put it combining Energy and Climate Action in one portfoilio was an act of sabotage for Oil and Gas industries in one fell swoop..

Ryan would be well advised the read up on article 10

[raisethestake1] 23/9/2022 20:51

It is apparent to all at this stage that sleepy Ryan's days are numbered.He has become a serious threat to the common good of the people of the people of Ireland and that is an offence against the constitution.

This lot sure are bad but do them slimy shinners offer any hope on Energy Security? They likely to want to nationalise if it worth owt...

Indeed Peaeff, even if the world was in a stable energy situation the ideological dreams of the net zero zealots would not be achievable in Ireland and the pursuit of those dreams would mean nothing but economic hardship and untold misery for the Irish population. But as we know the world is not in a normal situation, Russia is at war with Ukraine and by proxy the west, energy security now circumvents the virtuous lunacy of net zero, the fact that Irelands current government still dithers and dances to the tune of the lunatic greens is beyond belief, it is in my opinion treasonous, they are betraying their own country, they are wantonly damaging the lives of the good people of Ireland. The rural independents are starting to stir but they need to do more, they need to organise mass social protest now, this treasonous government must be removed.

Just to keep the gang together on or after 27th:



I'll try to improve on it later.

Fracking ban lifted in Uk. Hopefully this will spur on our clowns.

[swizz] 21/9/2022 18:29

They certainly have the bit between their teeth on Barryroe, it does make you wonder how much longer before the company breaks its radio silence and specifically the new CEO, though the interims must be very close and that will provide a good opportunity to reference recent events,..GL S

More from Mattie McGrath..


“I thank iar-Seanadóir Brian Ó Domhnaill, my daughter Mairéad and iar-Seanadóir John Hanafin for their help in putting the motion together. I make no apologies for the motion we have brought forward today. We will take no criticism from the Minister of State or the absent Minister who was here at the start. Why is it that he has fled like snow off a ditch when questions were being asked, especially by the rural groups, the Regional Group, ourselves and Deputy McNamara who had to return to the health committee? The Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan has to answer. He made one statement - and we will check the record - that a final decision will issue on Barryroe and the application in the coming weeks. We will hold him to that because he has dithered.”

Mattie Mc Grath knows how to gut opponents and good to see him go for spineless Ryan's
neck

[swizz] 21/9/2022 16:55

This is the transcript of Ryan’s response to Mattie McGrath and I think with the current backdrop of the energy security review and energy crisis, I sense he will be more inclined to approve, which to some degree kicks the can down the road, as there are a number of other regulatory stages that he will be mindful of, a refusal would instigate immediate litigation and in light of the overwhelming evidence to support the Providence claim, this is not something that Ryan would want at this stage,…GL S

Deputy Mattie McGrath
How long is it going to take?

Deputy Eamon Ryan
These are environmental, technical and financial. The countermotion also notes that broader energy policy or energy security considerations have no bearing on the regulatory process. To answer Deputy McGrath's question, I expect it shortly, within the coming weeks.

serious pressure now coming on Ryan. Heard him today on the radio. Green delivery is crumbling before his eyes and people are so tired of his mantra they actually dont care anymore about long term. just worried bout day to day .

Deputy Eamon Ryan
Regarding the specific application for a lease undertaking made by Providence Resources in respect of the Barryroe field, the countermotion sets out the current position, which is that the application is under consideration by the Department and that it, like all other such applications, is assessed against a number of criteria.

sorry , out of the loop here. has Ryan committed to a YES or NO on LU within 2 weeks.

[theshenagainagain] 21/9/2022 14:21

Great news. Decision in the next few weeks. Impossible in my view for them to say no.

[gofkc] 21/9/2022 13:49

Ryan won’t like the news being delivered in two weeks time when the recommendation coming from his officials is the opposite to his ideology. He will be out of the country when the licence renewal is announced
