The ESB says the cost of repair work for damage caused by Storm Eowyn won't be passed on to customers, this year at least.
There's been uproar in recent days after comments from the utilities Chief Executive indicating the cost would have to be partly covered by price hikes.
However in a statement last night Paddy Hayes said he understands why his comments 'caused concern' , adding there will be no impact on prices in 2025.
Beyond that Mr. Hayes says any changes would be reviewed with the regulator.
People Before Profit TD Paul Murphy says households simply shouldn't have to pay for repairs:
