At EirGrid, we develop and operate the national electricity grid, so that everyone has power when and where they need it. The grid takes electricity from where it is generated and delivers it to the distribution network, operated by ESB, which powers every home, business, school, hospital, factory and farm on the island. We also supply power directly to some of Ireland’s largest energy users. We are responsible for a safe, secure and reliable supply of electricity: now, and in the future.
