Irish Grid Monthly: October 2025
www.greencollective.io
In this month's "Irish Grid Monthly":
- wind power and the RESS auctions
- Storm Amy
- disappointing solar generation
- are imports booting domestic wind generation off the grid?
- a new low for October carbon emissions
And much more!

We generally talk about county-level production of wind and solar separately but if we look at county-level production of all renewables (that's wind, solar, biomass, hydro) then Cork has *never* placed lower than #2 since 2019 and has placed #1 *most* of the time since solar ramped up in 2023 📊
Go Cork! ⬇️

What's (almost) as good as a new high in renewable generation? A new *low* in fossil fuel generation 🏭
