"
July and August this year set new records for wind power generation in
Ireland.
Wind power generation temporarily exceeded the total demand for electricity in
Ireland for the first time ever this week.
In the early hours of Tuesday morning, wind generation reached a high of 3,642
MW. Though Storm Agnes brought strong winds across the country, it isn’t
unusual for it to reach this level.
What was unusual was the fact that it surpassed the demand on Ireland’s
electricity grid throughout the entire island for the first time.
Wind Energy Ireland’s (WEI) Director of External Affairs Justin Moran told
Irish newspaper
The Journal that this was a “major achievement for Ireland’s
wind farms”.
It shows that there is potential for the country to decarbonise its electricity
system, he added."
