The latest data from Irish grid operator EirGrid has revealed that over half of the nation’s energy demand was met by renewable sources in February 2025.
Statistics from the National Energy System Operator (NESO) show that in November 42% of Great Britain's electricity came from zero carbon sources, peaking at 84% on 24 November at 4am.
The results of Ireland’s third Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) auction selected 3 onshore wind projects, totalling 148MW, as provisional winners.
Plans have been unveiled that will see the Irish energy grid directly connected to continental Europe for the first time via a 575km interconnector running through the Celtic Sea.
