EirGrid published its latest review of its Grid25 programme in the form of a new draft grid development strategy entitled “Your Grid, Your Views, Your Tomorrow”on the 27th March 2015. The draft is shaped by three key pillars: open engagement with communities; making the most of new technologies; and a commitment to make the existing grid work harder before building new transmission infrastructure.
