Ireland''s energy renewables project

Since outside of utility-scale projects, Irish energy policy categorises renewable projects by scale as microgenerator (for sizes up to 11 kW), minigenerator (for sizes up to 50 kW), and small-scale generators (for sizes up to 200 kW) we can do some rough calculations. In the worst case, grid availability is enough for 290,000 microgeneration
