Electricity generation in Ireland over the summer has historically been dominated by fossil fuels. But, that's changing: solar and batteries (along with imports) are gradually displacing gas generation. It won't be long before we see a summer month with mostly renewable generation.

Yes, Carlow! Garrenleen Solar Farm has started reaching 30MW during July ☀️ It has a planned final size of 160MW, making it one of several new-ish solar farms whose final output will *each* exceed that of the current largest, Meath's Gallanstown (120MW).
