Eamon Ryan (Dublin Bay South, Green Party) | Oireachtas source

You have to have the people with you and work with them. There is a revolution happening in this country at the moment. It is a solar revolution. In Kerry and elsewhere, the Deputy can talk to the companies delivering that. They will say that the phone never stops ringing. It rings morning, noon and night, with Irish people waking up to the realisation that using our own clean, sustainable power systems from the sun, wind and elsewhere is the cheaper and better way to go. We are going gangbusters. It is taking off and it will continue for the years to come because it makes sense. It is cheaper, quicker, cleaner and easier.
