There's already a planned 500km interconnector between Ireland and France[1], which avoids Brexit related risks. Since wind power is growing in importance in Ireland, it's a great chance to make the EU grid greener, and build out the idea of the EU super grid[2] concept. Ireland also has enormous offshore wind potential off the Atlantic coast, which could be built out and the energy exported to mainland Europe. However, let's hope that the UK can agree to a deal to fully develop the potential of the Dogger Bank project[3, 4] (collaboration between the British, Dutch, Germans and Danes to build the largest offshore wind project in the world). Another project I'd love to see is Iceland's geothermal energy piped through Ireland or the UK to mainland Europe[5], supplying crucial baseload energy to the UK, perhaps even to mainland Europe.
