    Yeah you are right, it’s still a lot of sun. I’m curious how much of their energy they import and if it’s expensive to import

      I don’t know the details, but there is this beautiful Great Britain grid status page, and you can see the transfers to Ireland for the past year. If I’m reading this right they installed an absurd amount of wind (not enough, but getting close) and Ireland is currently importing.
