Energy Policy and Modelling Group Research Showcase in Dublin

The EPMG had a wonderful morning on 17th December 2024 at Engineers Ireland showcasing some of our energy modelling research and policy insights from University College Cork focusing on carbon budgets, policy pathways, emissions, energy security and engagement on infrastructure.

Great discussions with nearly 100 stakeholders and friends from policy, industry and NGO communities. Thanks to all for the warm compliments and the tough questions.

Huge thanks to Oisín Coghlan, Jeanne Moore, John Fitzgerald and Fionnuala Callanan for chairing, opening and closing, also to fellow presenters Fionn Rogan, Hannah Daly, Paul Deane, Vahid Aryanpur, Alexandra Revez and Tomás Mac Uidhir. Special thanks to Aisling Murphy for putting it all together so well and to Jeanne Spillane and Ciara Doherty for their support.
