Last updated: 08 April 2026

The Commission for the Regulation of Utilities’ Price Review 6 (PR6) provides for up to €18.9 billion investment (2026-2030) in Ireland’s electricity networks, supported by €3.5 billion in government equity funding. The programme funds the expansion and reinforcement of transmission (EirGrid) and distribution (ESB Networks) infrastructure, including grid capacity upgrades, system resilience, and new connections for growing electricity demand. It supports integration of renewable generation and increased electrification of end-use sectors by strengthening the national grid, rather than directly funding generation or transport assets.
