The grouping is led by Roscommon/Galway's Deputy Denis Naughten, and also includes Galway East's Sean Canney and Galway West's Noel Grealish.
Among their demands are a ban on threats to turn off supply, the reopening of power generation at Lanesboro and Shannonbridge, and the re-commissioning of Derrybrien Wind Farm.

They're also calling on the Government to establish an energy support scheme for businesses, as some are facing a doubling or tripling of utility costs.
