Ireland''s energy storage could increase eightfold by 2035
"This would increase Ireland''s energy storage capacity almost eightfold – enough to power every home in Ireland twice over on a still, cloudy day," the report states.
This is misleading. We estimate that Ireland is spending approximately €1.2 billion on wind energy per annum. As we save between 2.62 to 4%3 of our overall CO2 emissions from this deployment of wind, the cost per percentage point of CO2 saved is between €300 million and €461 million per year.
According to Energy Storage Ireland, 14% of all wind energy generated in Ireland last year was wasted due to lack of storage. Ireland's energy storage could increase eightfold by 2035, according to a new report by Energy Storage Ireland.
According to Energy Storage Ireland, 14% of all wind energy generated in Ireland last year was wasted due to lack of storage. If this pipeline was built out, the report states that Ireland could capture all of that wasted energy, further reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, and driving down energy costs for consumers.

"Energy storage solutions can transform our electricity system for the better," said Bobby Smith, head of Energy Storage Ireland.
