Empowering people to make more mindful energy choices is at the heart of ESB Networks’ flagship initiative, “Is This a Good Time?”. Nearly 40,000 customers are already taking part, earning rewards, and helping Ireland move closer to its climate goals.

National solar capacity has now exceeded 2 GW for the first time.

Tapping into it is easy with an ESB Networks Online Account.

More than four out of five households across the country now have a smart meter installed. Customers with a smart meter and an ESB Networks Online Account get insights into how they are using energy in the home and can even upload their energy usage data to price comparison websites, to get accurate advice on which is the best tariff for them.

ESB Networks hosted the Apprentice of the Year 2025 competition at the Networks Training Centre on Thursday, 26th June.  This annual event continues to highlight ESB Networks’ commitment to technical training and the ongoing development of Apprentices.
