18for0 Objective

We want all forms of electricity production to be considered in order to achieve net zero emissions in the Irish electricity system. 

​

Steps to achieve this include:

• Remove the barriers to scientifically assessing nuclear energy for its role in the Irish energy mix, including the legal barriers to nuclear power being located in Ireland

• Assess all technology options, at the scales they may be deployed, for their viability in helping Ireland decarbonize the electricity mix

• Develop scientific, technology-neutral models into the pathways to reach net zero emissions in the electricity system by 2050

• Base the roadmap to net zero on these pathways in combination with the assessments
