RED set out mandatory targets for renewable energy in Ireland to be met by 2020, while REDII sets new targets and criteria to be met by Ireland in 2030 and the interim. The first target relates to overall renewable energy share (RES) and is commonly referred to as the overall RES target.
Ireland’s energy transition has been making great strides. The government has led the way in setting ambitious targets, creating favourable regulatory and support structures and creating markets for the green economy. As a result, renewable capacity has greatly expanded since 2005.
She added: “As a Minister based in the West of Ireland, I am also very pleased to see the Connemara Greenway receive a strong funding allocation of over €3 million in 2022.

The Government set an ambitious national target for RES-E of 40% for 2020.
The building of the various greenways has also led to closer ties formed between the local Irish communities and their European counterparts. Several of Ireland’s greenways make up a part of EuroVelo 1, the Atlantic Coast Route.
This could have several implications for the 2024 energy year in Ireland. Opportunities for renewables growth will need to be consolidated with issues like mandates for energy efficiency and accommodating for large energy users. We need to ensure that short-term challenges do not restrict opportunities for long-term growth.
The success of the Great Western Greenway inspired the Great Eastern Greenway along Carlingford Lough’s southern shore, which led in turn to the Old Rail Trail Greenway from Mullingar to Athlone, Waterford’s Greenway as well as the recently opened Royal Canal Greenway through Kildare to Longford which is soon to be connected to Dublin.
