Renewable Heat: Turning up the Dial on Decarbonisation | The Electricity Exchange

Accounting for 44% of final energy consumption in Ireland and given its non-negotiable link to quality of life as an essential utility, heat will play a critical role in meeting Ireland’s overall decarbonisation and energy security objectives. With ongoing and upcoming initiatives to improve the efficiency of our heating requirements so we use less, in this episode, we discuss what can be done to decarbonise the heat that we do use. Joining Paddy are Donna Gartland, CEO at Codema, and David Connolly, CTO at Astatine. Together the panel cover the opportunities that exist in utilising otherwise disposed heat through district heating networks, with the guidance of examples in comparable countries, and the potential for heat to leverage the increasing renewable content in our electricity system by electrifying traditional fossil fuel heating systems in homes and businesses. The Electricity Exchange is a series of discussions hosted by Dr. Paddy Finn, VIOTAS CEO & CTO. Together with industry experts, Paddy and guests analyse and discuss a wide variety of topics related to electricity, the energy landscape and what the future may look like.
