How are you, Marty?

I'm only middling.

He's a great character, a great ambassador for agriculture and for rugby and for Ireland as a whole.

So we'll listen into the interview that yourself and Sarah have done with Tyke for along here now.

You're listening to Youngstock, sponsored by ESB Networks.

Thanks very much, Ty, for joining us on the Youngstock podcast this week.

But as we can see, there are initiatives and stuff that are taking place in the marketplace now where we're trying to learn with different behaviors and how we can help utilize the grid in more efficient ways that will hopefully expand and broaden out those charging opportunities and those cheap charging times of use.

A recent announcement from yourselves was the new EVFlex initiative together with ESB Networks.

Can you talk us

through that, please? Yes.

but really this is just about understanding consumer habits.

So what we're trying to do is put a, we're supporting them with encouraging customers to plug in for longer periods of the day.

That just gives them a sense as to how they, and those customers are being rewarded, again, by ESPN.

They're not being rewarded by OMI.

Good morning.

Um, let's start, uh, locally, uh, firstly, Minister, and you've been seeking, uh, assurances from ESB Networks that its program of improvement works, uh, for Bettystown, Laytown, Mornington, that sort of area, will be completed within the promised timeframe at the minimum possible further disruption to customers.

There has been a lot of disruption.

Oh, a massive amount of disruption.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Young Stock Podcast.

Later up, Peter Thomas Keaveney spoke to Clare Daly from the FTMTA.

Listen, let's get into our interview this week where Peter Thomas Keaveney spoke to Clare Daly, the Members Relations Officer at the Farm Tractor and Machinery Trade Association, or as it's known as FTMTA.

They discuss her career and the upcoming machinery show in November.

You're listening to Youngstock, sponsored by ESB Networks.

Well, folks, Peter Thomas Keaveney here.

but we don't like taking no for an answer.

So we sat back and we designed a SCADA control system and back to ESB Networks and worked very closely with them over a 12 month period to prove that this is a viable project, this can be done and here's how we're gonna do it.

And actually got regulation changed at the end of it to make sure that our client could get a solar, has an option to put battery on and he maximizes solar wind and will eventually have battery storage.

but having the knowledge in-house and investing in that early days backing ourselves is the reason we get these large projects and you know these larger commercial projects are coming thick and fast we launched a 200 million funds recently and where like manok and similar companies like mana can avail of a power purchase agreement where we go in and fully fund the project.

So thanks for that, Siobhan.
