Demanding an electricity grid to support renewable energy now.

We cannot have a zero-carbon electricity system without a grid built to support it.

Our existing grid infrastructure urgently needs to be reinforced to support renewable energy.

Ireland’s grid was built to support twentieth century fossil fuel generators. Renewable energy has different needs – and it requires a more flexible grid. We urgently need to strengthen the grid to accommodate all available renewable energy and help protect consumers from international fossil fuel prices.

Join us – support an electricity grid that can ensure cleaner, cheaper electricity for all.
