From Intermittent to Intelligent: Building Ireland’s Flexible, Future-Proof Grid
In today’s Energy Transition report published with the Irish Independent and Mediaplanet, Solar Ireland CEO Ronan Power lays out a bold vision for the next phase of Ireland’s clean energy journey — one that goes beyond deployment to focus on flexibility.
From battery storage and smart grid technologies to hybrid systems and circularity, this piece explores the urgent need to future-proof Ireland’s grid as solar continues to scale.
“We risk building capacity we can’t use unless we invest in flexibility - smart grid technologies, energy storage, and system stability.”
Key topics covered:
– Grid resilience and system stability
– Hybrid and behind-the-meter connections
– Private Wires policy progress
– The need for circular solar infrastructure
– What to expect at Solar Ireland 2025 this October
