Zusammenfassung:Ireland is committed to supplying more than 40% of electrical energy from renewable sources - primarily wind generation, with a 10% penetration of electric vehicles and national smart metering - by 2020. The sole distribution system operator for the Republic of Ireland, ESB Networks (ESBN) will play a key role in achieving these targets. Over the last decade, ESBN, which serves more than 2 million customers with its transmission system and distribution network that extends 180,000 km (111,847 miles), has invested strategically in infrastructure. As a result, Ireland has a modern, well-maintained electricity system in excellent condition.
