Photograph: Dara Mac Dónaill / The Irish Times Photograph: Dara Mac Donaill / The Irish TimesIrish households and businesses need to cut their reliance on energy during the peak evening hours this winter to help ensure the country does not face shortages, Minister for the Environment Eamon Ryan has said.
“That’s the time when actually the last generator goes on. So if we can use some of our devices, in large industry or at home, those washing machines, dishwashers which can be done on a time basis, that actually is one of the best ways of getting through the winter.” On Tuesday it emerged that efficiencies were being planned for public sector buildings in a bid to cut usage – temperatures will be lowered to 19 degrees in some cases, but Mr Ryan said other measures such as turning off lights would have to be decided in individual situations, taking into account safety and other considerations.

EamonRyan Great ideas for you Eamo! How about everyone who finishes work at 5 pushes their car home for the commute. Zero emissions, a great workout, heats up the body, we all lose weight and if it rains we get free shower! Multiple problems solved, run those past your advisors
This of course is the prime time people cook , after hard days work . What does ryan expect us to do
🤣🤣🤣
Funny how you never banged on about the climate crisis during covid, now no one buying into covid this scam is pushed the very same way.
Where does he live I’m a single parent with two teenage kids and work full time…. I need to use electronic equipment in my home from 5 onwards or I’ve no washing, clean clothes, hot water or hot food….. get a grip Eamonn Ryan,Come live in my life for 5 mins 😡
So says the great BS
Send everyone home at 2pm. So we have time to cook de dinner. Turn off all the office equipment. Go to bed early. Start all over again. It's gonna be a long Irish Winter
Just to flatten the curve.
I thought he was on drugs now I'm sure of it.. 5 t 7 pm. What about all the house holds not using as much electricity during the day. There has to be something good about there saving during the day time
Fcuk 'im. Turn everything on at 5pm. Now Eamonn ya dipstick, plan B?
No
So children and adults should go home to cold homes?
Warm some beans on a primus stove . Then try to gently toast some bread by waving it over the flame. 🤡
So maybe if everyone is stuck in a 2 hour commute, they won't be using electricity and gas at home! Genius!! 😉😁
WhistleIRL Ryan is a lying sack!
Irish people need to raise to the steers and get these clowns out of power
Data centers too?
Fu*k off sleepy
Data centres going up everywhere no talk that
What a tit
A vile narcissistic scumbag who got us into this mess, wants everyone now to stop living between 5 and 7.. greenparty_ie wants everyone back in caves
Tell him the best energy saving tip is get rid of all the data centers and stop giving planning permission for more. I've read there's 8 new ones in the pipelines.
Who would listen to a clown whose party is at 2% of the electorate. He has some neck ,,,, can’t wait to see these clowns gone
His guy lives on another planet.
Maybe cut back the amount of power data centres use?
2) incpetence employing 16 advisor's rumoured now ? LPD Port immediate go ahead needed now especially as Energy Minister can't stay awake long enough to plan for these issues warned about two year's ago yet Govt of collective Minister's did NOTHING !!!
1) Households and firms need a Minister for energy who can pre-plan, engage and rectify issues. Just allowing data Centre's without requirements planning in build own energy source production like Wind, solar or wave by and by Govt don't even consider wave energy is shocking
bollocks. if you don't use it 5-7 and use it 7-9 instead.. the same amount of energy is used. Make no mistake, this mans plan isn't even his, it's the WEF's, and the plan is to make living unaffordable to everyone, so the poor die out. Thats their plan to tackle climate change.
We’re all in this together..🤮🤮🤮🤮
And the data centres?
Crazy man wants to facilitate Data Centres. When people arrive home from work he doesn't want them to cook a meal after a day's work.
We need to vote out the green party
There are better ways Ryan, much much greener and better.... Why don't political parties choose their candidates from a better pool of people 😐
Biggest drain on resources…
Hope they not confirm that...
Ryan is the only happy person throughout this energy scam . He's loving it.
He’s got absolutely got nothing has he
When you get home from work, which for the masses is usually between 5 and 7 you must breathe on your dinner to heat it up and then eat it in the dark 🙄. Get rid of this incompetent man!
eamonryan MarcKC_Green Here we are now at the cusp of a catastrophe and the idealist is spouting nonsense again. No short term strategy. Why not actually try to help the people who currently have no choice but to use fossil fuels. Retrofitting is not affordable fix that too.
I am so sick of this clown.. fuck off
Fill the Dublin hills with wind turbines to power the city
O yea... The token tax...
every schoolboy knows if the 500 million citizens of the EU had a referendum right now To have peace ☮️ talks and END war 95% YES To turn NS1 on immediately 90% YES To fire EU Commission 95% YES To restructure EU 98% YES To dissolve NATO 80% YES Germany
I am not being told what to do by this inept government. They are the problem and not the solution
Clown
Go back to sleep Eamon ffs
I always thought fanatical cult leaders were charasmatic and intelligent! How did sleepy Éamonn get to lead his?
EamonRyan quick question - is there any reason why most of the businesses and public institutions are still not running on green energy? Waking up a little bit too late Mr.! Seriously where all this 'green' money goes?
The times people come home from work and school to have dinner, put a wash on, have showers etc. How about moving the peak price time to between 12am - 4am? Or would that impact on profits to much?
It's been a long time since Ryan collected kids from school or creche and got them home and fed. So should school and work change times too? Utter nonsense.
We was meant to be a neutral country yet here we are one of europes bitches feeling the sanctions that our corrupt government placed on ordinary working people
How about you get out from the GOV with your countless taxes and bills, That works better!
So everyone dies 7-9 instead.. oh wait! 🤡🌍
WEF Muppet
Let’s start with closing down the Dail bar all state vehicles should be returned immediately and public transport used as an alternative
This will be the exact same as the covid scam. The peasants will abide by whatever the establishment decree while the great & the good will just break the rules as they did with golfgate, merriongate etc.
🤣🤣🤣🙃🙃🙃
WhistleIRL So everyone cooks dinner at 7.01 p.m. How about datacenters turn off between 5 and 7? I'm sure we could all sacrifice Facebook and Twitter for a few hours in the day.
WhistleIRL Shut down the data centers.
WhistleIRL Eamon Ryan is to Statesmanship, what Harold Shipman was to Geriatric care!
Yes let them eat cake - says the man worth over 2m enriched on the backs of ordinary working people.
Awful crank this fella
WhistleIRL This flake
Ill have everything on full blast
Close down the Dail bar and restaurant, government are getting food and drink for free.
This with all the data centres in Ireland using energy.....war on the Irish people by this Irish govt
WhistleIRL We need to unplug datacentres from the grid
If you’d done your job properly we wouldn’t have any problems !!! timeforchange
LizaRutherford7 We now go live to Eamon’s house for a 5 to 7 special called “dig for victory.”
He should be sacked if there were any standards.
Well then, people won't be able to watch rte 6 o clock propaganda news on the TV and get a small break from what the government want them to be thinking so...Every cloud has a sliver lining 😂 People might make up their mind about them all more quicker when their cold and hungry.
WAR EFFORT
No HEAT OR DINNER READY AFTER WORK
Someone needs to switch this man off.. The drivel he comes out with sometimes. I bet the next thing he comes out with will be, buy extra blankets for winter and turn off your heating.
Thanks a mill whoever voted (again) for this buffoon.
So basically everyone coming home from work shouldn't make dinner amd sit in the dark for the winter
The prices have gone up to make us cut back. To meet emission targets. Also so they don’t have blackouts. All part of their plan.
We? What you are going to do?
Ryan is a clown
But the Data centres can blaze away 🤣🤣
So when people come in from school & college & work dinner time.
He closed two peat powered stations in the Midlands and replaced them with nothing
Trust the science
Gobshite
Meanwhile EamonRyan & greenparty_ie promote the expansion of energy sapping data centres - will they be asked to cut their energy usage ? On 2% support in opinion polls, the Greens on 0% can’t come soon enough
The crisis will hit because if the usage drops between 5 and 7 it will increase either side of that window.
Who in their right minds listens to 1 world government ryan
Reopen Shannonbridge and lanesboro power stations and we will have no problem
So he wants people to all cut energy at the same time 5-7pm which means they'll all be using energy at the same time after these hours, genius.
Meanwhile... Eamon Ryan is promoting e-bikes which increase the demand on the electrical grid. So what's more important feeding my family or someone using an e-bike rather than actually cycling or walking.
Don't stayathome. It's too expensive.
No.
During dinner time? Why can’t big corporations fix this and leave us alone?
Right, exactly when everybody is cooking dinner...
I Recall,stories from the old days.Families sitting around an open fire (Turf),candles,if they didn't have ESB or If they did, candles the ready as powercuts,regularly.6pm the Angelus & Then the news on the Radio or watch TV in B&W, This could B winter in 2022 greenparty_ie 😳
He’s actual a parody at this stage.
He's from Mars that fella, send him back on the first rocket out of our planet, shove it up his arse if the need bee He's not from the real world
Meanwhile, 82 million euro is being lavished on bike lanes!
EamonRyan is a clown the greenparty_ie need to get rid of him before the next general election then again they won't be around after the next general election
What a brat .. shame on the government who is allowing him to inflict such horror on Irish people .. shame shame shame .. all to stay in power.. selling their souls for money
This fella head is in the clouds. Away with the fairies. Advocates wind energy and solar power at enormous cost while taxing the shit out of coal oil and gas. He needs to be replaced and fast…
Or maybe they can fix the actual problem?
What is this nonsense really about
Be safer if these TRAITORS start leaving our island of Ireland 🇮🇪 every winter they squeezing the people, Scaremongering, enough is enough.
Thought the information given in the census was used for planning for the future as in weighing up population increase,building new schools and hospitals etc to cater for increases, and also planning on increased usage of energy by building infrastructure. They failed miserably
Is this dose serious? Scaremongering to meet an EU quota 😂🙄 EamonRyan
darkest time of the winter,mail meal times,who elected this fool? this statement as bad as the one where he wanted people outside of dublin yo car share!!shame on you peole of dublin bay south,for electing this ignoramus !!!!!👎🇮🇪☘️😷
Singing off the same hymn sheet world wide, the exact same as Cov 19, Climate Crisis, Food Shortages, Terror Alerts etc. They’ve gone too far now and the majority have woken up, if they want a war against their own people, let’s see how that goes.
So its not the fault of the energy companies, it is the fault of individual house-holds and SME's...WOW!
He needs to go now ... people of Ireland we need to get on the streets and get these government out once and for all..
So workers arriving home between the hrs of 7 and 5 should huddle around a candle until 7:01PM then put on dinners, washing, heat the house (assuming people were huddled around tealights and not pillar candles), wash their kids and then there will be not powercuts!! Great plan!
Eamon Ryan needs to go and his two amigos they got us into this mess.. Ireland is neutral country and we could have got gas and oil cheaply and stored.. bring back the peat plants and generate electricity ourselves IDontStandWithUkraine
Diesel generators will be flying out the doors of suppliers.
Failed state
Blame the people again you cowardly traitor !! ShaminEamon EamonRyan
Sound familiar?
Then there's a surge at 7? 👌🤡
EamonRyan
Gobshite
So we all hold off cooking dinner till 8 ?
It's a con. Green solutions can't cope with demand. Prices artificially raised to force people to cut usage. Data centers stay running. Ryan blames Ukraine and he looks like hero along with green energy. Prices were raised using government propaganda in the media.
