Key Findings The relatively small size of Investing in the Irish Electricity Market, ESB dominance and uncertainty over future trading arrangements serve to reduce the attractiveness of the Irish market from both an investor’s and fi n a n c i e r ’ s point of view. Despite these issues, a number of parties remain interested in developing electricity generation and supply businesses in Ireland. The key difficulty facing those considering investing is the absence of a party to offer long-term offtake contracts to generators, which would enable the generators to obtain non recourse financing. It is likely that, in order to facilitate investment by a new generator, the current bilateral contracts based trading arrangements will have to be modified, in conjunction with the opportunity for IPPs to sell to ESB PES post 20 0 5 .
