Three energy research projects with Kerry involvement have been allocated funding by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland.
Almost €20 million is going to 49 projects to support and enable the research.
These projects bring together leading academic institutes, industry partners, and not-for-profits to tackle key areas in our national efforts to transition to a low carbon society.
The CORDS project is led by Munster Technological University, and will explore how advanced digital technologies can allow companies uncover energy saving opportunities.
The Sustainability Dingle project is led by Waterford Institute of Technology in partnership with Údarás na Gaeltachta.
It'll outline how a coastal community, such as Dingle, can build a sustainability model for local energy communities.
The WindLEDeRR project is led by University College Dublin in partnership with Munster Technological University and several other universities.
It'll develop a comprehensive decision-making tool for end-of-life wind turbines in Ireland.
