Decarbonising the gas network
The decarbonisation of Ireland's gas network is essential if the country is to transition to a net-zero energy system by 2050, as laid out in the National Hydrogen Strategy and the Government's Climate Action Plan. As we transform, driving innovation across our business is critical if we are to thrive.

The Gas Innovation Fund
We strive to improve our network by promoting our Innovation Fund which provides funding to projects that will positively impact the operation and management of the gas network.
