Guided tours of Ardnacrusha Power Station in Co Clare will offer a rare opportunity to explore one of Ireland’s most significant engineering landmarks this summer.
The ESB is offering free tours of the power plant from 3 July to 4 September.
The tour traces the story of electricity in Ireland from the station’s origins in the 1920s to ESB’s commitment to renewable energy and reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2040.
“The team at Ardnacrusha is delighted to once again welcome visitors behind the gates of this impressive station,” Plant Manager at Ardnacrusha Brendan Shine said.
“It’s a wonderful opportunity to experience how the station operates and to learn about the vital role it has played in Ireland’s economic and social development. Our tour guides are committed to making every visit engaging and memorable, and we encourage anyone interested to book early as the tours sell out every year”.
Ardnacrusha revolutionised life in Ireland and continues to play an important role in ESB’s Sustainability Strategy.
Participants will also gain insight into some of the cutting-edge renewable energy technologies being adopted by the organisation.
