Renewable energy generation falls again in Northern Ireland

Other sources, including biogas, biomass, solar and landfill gas contributed the remaining 18.1%.

Renewable generation can vary markedly from month to month, mainly due to weather.

Northern Ireland has a target of generating 80% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030.

Industry experts have warned that that target will be missed.

The director of RenewableNI, Steven Agnew, said Northern Ireland was being left behind.

“Since March this year, which recorded the full 2023 calendar year, every report has shown a decrease,” he said.

“Meanwhile our neighbours are reporting continued growth.

“Once Northern Ireland was the renewable energy leader and others looked on in envy.

“Our last renewable electricity support scheme delivered the target two years ahead of expected – meeting 40% of people’s electricity needs coming from renewables by 2018.

“And then we had a policy vacuum that has seen Northern Ireland go from leaders to laggards.”
