Is Ireland on course to meet its 2030 decarbonisation targets?

Host in Ireland is hosting a free webinar to discuss whether or not Ireland is on course to meet its 2030 decarbonisation targets.

Host in Ireland’s ‘Empowering Change – The Challenges and Opportunities for Ireland’s Decarbonised Electrical Grid’ live FREE webinar is taking place on Wednesday, 1 December, where they will explore the interconnected relationship between data, electricity, and climate objectives.

Two of the five “megatrends” that will shape our world over the course of this century are digitalisation and decarbonisation. The place these trends intersect is none other than a data centre.

The panel discussion will be moderated by Garry Connolly,  and guests will include:

— Mark Foley, CEO of Eirgrid

–Noel Cuniffe, CEO Wind Energy Ireland

— Brian Ó Gallachóir, Professor of Energy Engineering, University College Cork & Director of SFI MaREI Centre.

They will look at how Ireland can leverage its experience as a centre of data excellence, become a world leader in decarbonising data and meet 2030 climate targets.

Electricity and renewable energy experts will share how Ireland’s grid will need to be modernised over the coming decade.

And finally, they will explore data as an economic driver and how its dependency on Ireland’s ageing electrical infrastructure creates both opportunities and challenges for a modern society.
