Sustainability
We believe in a green and fair energy transition. To help achieve this, we work with local communities to develop renewable projects that deliver green energy to the grid, climate action, clean air, and a secure power supply from Ireland’s own natural resources.
In Ireland, our sustainability work focuses on four main areas:
Climate
Renewable energy is key to combatting climate change. In Ireland, our renewable energy projects prevent thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere every year, helping to reduce the worst impacts of global climate change.
Biodiversity
Incorporating environmentally sustainable measures into the project design when we are developing our renewable energy projects is always our goal. This demonstrates our commitment to mitigating our impact on biodiversity in a responsible way, and by using our projects to enhance the area’s biodiversity while generating clean energy.
Human Rights
While we are powering a green future, we are equally committed to respecting human rights and decent working conditions, and continuously work to integrate this in the way we do business.
Circular Economy
We strive to reduce the material footprint of our own activities through the repowering and rehabilitation of our wind and solar assets, as well as the use of energy storage solutions.
