Wind & Tidal Power – Scottish-Irish Electricity Grid

It has been proposed that an undersea electricity grid will be built to connect Scotland and Ireland within the next 10 years. In recent news, the UK is set to see another dip back into recession and it is thought that this proposed grid will provide a major economic boost - creating jobs, revenue and securing our green energy future. Ministers from Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland are going to press Westminster and Brussels on the issue so that plans can be put in motion to allow the construction to begin. Extensive research over two years shows that these areas have the most powerful offshore renewable energy sources in Europe. For example, Scotland has a quarter of the continents wind and tidal resource, and around a tenth of its potential wave power. This is a great potential project for Scotland and will allow further development their exporting capabilities and bring revenues back into the country.
