Ireland saw new records set for solar power on the national electricity grid in March, with 39% of electricity coming from renewable sources last month, according to provisional figures from EirGrid. March 25th saw a new peak for grid-scale solar power in Ireland, with over 750 Megawatts (MW) coming from this source at one point - 18 MW more than a previous record from July 2024. This follows a new peak wind power record on the grid set in February. In all, this March saw the third-highest ever amount of solar-powered electricity produced in the course of a calendar month. Last month also saw further records set on the power system, with the highest ever level of discharge from grid-scale battery power sources seen on 14 March. For context, the just under 300 MW of power discharged from batteries during this peak is greater than the maximum output from the Turlough Hill hydropower facility. Wind power met a third of the electricity demand in March, while gas was the single biggest source of electricity generation for the month at 39%, and 18% of demand was met by electricity imported via interconnection. Alongside renewables, gas-powered generation and interconnection are important contributors towards meeting system demand, particularly at times of low renewable availability. Overall, the electricity system demand stood at 3,061 GWh for March. Currently the electricity grid can accommodate up to 75% of electricity from renewable sources at any one time: what is known as the system non-synchronous penetration (SNSP) limit. Mixing electricity from synchronous (from conventional generation) and non-synchronous (renewables) sources while operating the power system is a very complex task, and Ireland's current 75% SNSP limit is among the highest in the world. While renewable generation reached up to the 75% limit at various points in the month, there were also periods where renewable generation provided for as little as 5% of demand. EirGrid is rolling out an unprecedented programme of grid reinforcements, upgrades and new infrastructure across the country, enabling the connection of further generation sources to maintain a secure and reliable power supply while also ensuring that 80% of electricity can come from renewables, as set out in Government targets. Charlie McGee, System Operational Manager at EirGrid, said: "March was a landmark month for solar power on the electricity grid. While just under 3% of total electricity generation came from solar for the month, during particularly sunny periods, this peaked at over 18%, which augurs well for further records this summer. This is made possible by the connection of greater amounts of grid-scale solar as we work towards achieving a cleaner energy future for Ireland's power system. "It was also encouraging to see a new peak set for power discharged from batteries on the grid. February's wind power record, followed by a new solar peak in March, shows the need for battery storage so we can hold greater amounts of renewable electricity in reserve for use during periods of high demand."
The Australian is next month and the polls are showing Albanese's Labor out in front.

At this moment, the cheapest way to create electricity is by pointing a solar panel at the sun. That's good news for the climate. It's also good news for communities who want to take control of their own electricity generation. In the heart of Brooklyn, UPROSE is helping to build a solar project that will be owned by the community, provide jobs, and help residents bring down their energy costs. In Puerto Rico, where hurricanes have devastated the power grid, community members are building solar microgrids to provide reliable electricity as the utility has proven they cannot. Meanwhile in conservative rural Virginia, Energy Right is helping farmers and rural communities adopt solar projects, touting a free market message about energy independence and security. Guests: Elizabeth Yeampierre, Attorney; Executive Director, UPROSE Skyler Zunk, CEO and Founder, Energy Right Arturo Massol-Deyá, Executive Director, Casa Pueblo de Adjuntas We're excited to share two upcoming opportunities to see Climate One Live!

Interview starts at 28:00 Curtis Stone joins us for a great chat about off grid living, homesteading, finding the right property, designing the compound, concrete and tyranny, living in Canada and BC specifically, unseeded vs treaty land, urban farming and much more. We also chat about his company that helps people figure out where to live and build, buying equipment, homeschooling, small towns, living with the freedom, gardening, running cows, building redundancies, and food forests. And of course we rail enough about the Gov and the ridiculous systems.... Off-grid on the mountain in Southern BC. Working towards freedom, liberty and prosperity. Sharing the journey and abundance along the way. https://x.com/offgridstone https://freedomfarmers.com/sp/homestead-accelerator/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-BlDCX__nCLs_ZF9meYQbw Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

Entrepreneurship is often about taking big risks, and for Jonah Greenberger, that meant leaving behind a stable job at a global energy giant to venture into an entirely new country, industry, and business model.From growing up in an academically inclined household to founding Bright, one of Mexico's leading solar energy companies, Jonah's journey is a masterclass in bold decision-making, resilience, and strategic execution.Bright has attracted funding from top-tier investors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Sierra Peterson, Ajax Strategies, and Soma Capital.
