Letters to the Editor: Ireland has an insufficiency of renewable energy

One reader urges the Government to implement meaningful sanctions against Israel, while another says that the oppression and genocide we are witnessing is not simply a threat to Palestinians but to us all

A reader questions whether renewable energy will ever allow us to be energy secure. Picture: PA

We may have huge supplies of wind energy but it’s not sufficient to know that a source of energy is ‘huge’ until you have also considered our huge use of it.

I wonder how many of us believe renewable energy will ever allow us to be energy secure, let alone achieve the legally-binding 70% renewable electricity (upped by Minister Eamon Ryan to 80%) by 2030.
