Today, we have published a new research bulletin titled 'The impact of planning and regulatory delays for energy infrastructure'.
⚡ The research highlights how regulatory delays impact electricity prices, system emissions, and costs.

New article on SMARTLAB! “Over the next 10 years, the EU will implement directives on digital buildings and energy efficiency that will make huge demands of us and our buildings. This research helps map ways to deliver connected buildings at scale.” siliconrepublic.com/innovati…
Our project's Principal Investigator, Prof Stephen Kinsella, will continue to steer the team as he takes on the role of Chief Economics Advisor to the Taoiseach. Congratulations, Stephen!

He is giving a speech and is stood in front of a blue screen with white text on it reading: "What could Ireland look like if we get the energy transition right? Professor Stephen Kinsella". The University of Limerick logo is also visible in the bottom right of the screen
The complex reality of the energy transition in buildings is clear here. A living lab approach like that of SMARTLAB identifies and clarifies these complexities. m.independent.ie/irish-news/…
Every participant in the Limerick SMARTLAB project has their own dashboard, showing them their electricity use and their indoor environment, both live and over time. This information is giving people the power to make sound decisions about their building's future.
From museums to apartments, cafes to churches, houses to bars – throughout Limerick city centre, our team has been talking to people about why they got interested in joining the SMARTLAB project: youtu.be/LtLN1er5OIg @stephenkinsella @HelenaArchitect @Limerick_Leader
