We are the people behind Ireland's electricity grid. We operate the power system with world-leading levels of variable asynchronous renewable generation, ensuring that everyone has power when they need it.
However, our work is not limited to maintaining the current system. We are now transforming the power system for future generations.
This transformation is critical, as it will enable our society to reduce carbon emissions and meet our climate change and net zero ambitions.
