Hosted by Wind Energy Ireland and Ireland Electrified
Topic: Delivering Every Megawatt: Tackling Dispatch Down in Ireland
Dispatch down is no longer a technical footnote in Ireland’s energy transition, it is a defining strategic challenge. As Ireland continues to scale up renewable generation, increasing volumes of clean, low-cost electricity are being constrained because the system cannot fully accommodate them. For policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, and investors, dispatch down sits at the intersection of infrastructure, market design, and system resilience.
This policy forum provides a critical platform to move beyond diagnosis and toward delivery. Developing a robust action plan encompassing key actions to accelerate existing measures and review and implement new ones is essential to unlocking the full value of Ireland’s renewable resources. This is not only about reducing dispatch down; it is about strengthening competitiveness, protecting consumers, and ensuring Ireland’s leadership in the clean energy transition.
