Simple question for all MNW candidates in #EE24 to see if they support Irish energy security. Will they publicly support the North-South Interconnector going ahead ASAP? One of the main asks in the WEI #EE24 & #LE24 manifesto launched today. windenergyireland.com/latest-news/77…

Four projects have been approved by the planning system this year so far. That’s a total of around 228 MW of electricity. In order to meet Govts targets, An Bord PleanĆ”la would have needed to approve 860MW in that time. Read more šŸ”½ eu1.hubs.ly/H0btyBD0

In Ireland Electrified we are developing policy positions to help the transition to electric heat and transport, so that it can fulfil its immense potential. Some of our current policy priorities are looking the grid connections issues and electricity pass-through costs.

Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt making a movie about electrification of power demand wasn’t something I expected but am definitely here for it.

Our energy grid is holding back Ireland’s potential for clean, renewable power. It's crucial we invest in grid infrastructure to ensure wind and solar farms can power more homes across Ireland. We must unlock the power of renewable energy #BuildOurGrid #UnlockRenewableEnergy

On 4th June 2024, despite ideal wind conditions, Donegal lost about two-thirds of its wind generation due to grid limitations—enough electricity to power over 900 homes for a year! However Justin Moran explains there’s some positive news from the county. eu1.hubs.ly/H0dm9LR0

Scores of British MPs campaigning for more overhead power lines because they know it's the most efficient and cost-effective way to build a strong electricity grid. Will we get any TDs willing to do the same during this election? theguardian.com/environment/20…

Recent upgrades to Donegal’s power lines are boosting its clean energy delivery across Ireland. Yet, grid limits on peak wind days still mean lost renewable energy. Learn more about these improvements and the need for ongoing investment. #BuildOurGrid eu1.hubs.ly/H0dshv80
