I received my EUR2 refund for the 120 minute delay that evening - Bray to Balbriggan Annual ticket, divided by 480 journeys, single part of the journey = 100% discount
The letter also advised the following:
There was an ESB power failire in the Sandymount/Pearse area. This caused major problems in all surrounding stations. Our emergency generators kicked in, but due an other underlying problem with the signal system in the Tara Street and Lansdowne Road Stations locks on points did not correspond. As a reault all Dart and Subburban Rail services were curtailed between 18.55 to 20.55 hours.

I think the amount of the refund was a joke. Having made my own way to Pease st, I got in a taxi to Connolly which cost EUR5, and then had to wait an hour there.
