Over 360,000 homes and premises were without power after Monday.
According to the head of the National Emergency Coordination Group, Sean Hogan, most homes and businesses that are still without power in the country should be restored by the weekend.
Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, Hogan said that the ESB had restored power to most places that were affected but claimed that 55,000 properties were still without electricity.
ESB Networks said that over 360,000 homes and businesses were affected by the storm and efforts will be focused on restoring power to the south of the country, which was hit worst.
Hogan has said that 90% of those who are still without power should be restored by Saturday at the latest but has warned people that it "will take time, even with 4,000 crew working out there."
He claimed that it would be well into next week before everywhere in Ireland was back to full supply again and areas that got the brunt of the storm will be their focus for the moment.
"Wexford, Waterford, Cork, Kerry and Tipperary are all affected," he said, before adding that "these are isolated areas which are being cleared."
In some areas, as well as the ESB devoting long hours to restoring power, the Defence Forces have been asked to help locate damaged areas that need quick restoration.
ESB is currently updating people about power outages around the country on
their power check page website which is also available in app form on your phone.
Hogan's statement comes after the announcement that another storm might be heading towards Ireland just in time for the weekend.
Met Éireann issued a yellow weather warning stating that an Atlantic Depression is expected to track eastwards on Saturday.
Furthermore, Met Éireann has said that
Storm Brian will undergo ‘explosive cyclogenesis’ between Thursday and Friday and people are being advised to check the Met Éireann
website for updates.
