“…Ireland's current electricity mix is made up of: Gas 55%, coal 18% peat 6% oil 6% combined heat and power (chp) 4% and 11 % renewable sources [8]. Ireland is currently updating its energy generation portfolio and aims to source 40% of electricity demands from renewable sources by 2020 [9]. This will result in a aggregate reduction of emissions for electricity generation, for example carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced from 590 gCO2/ kWh at present to approximately 300 gCO2/kWh by 2020…”

The environmental impact associated with electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) is relatively large throughout its life cycle when compared to other durable consumer products. Prioritisation of reuse of WEEE is one approach that has been proposed to reduce manufacturing impacts and contribute to a reduction in this lifecycle burden. This paper aims to address two key issues in the area of reuse of EEE. (1) When should an appliance be reused and (2) what general conditions must be present for a successful reuse industry to operate? Surveys were conducted for five European reuse enterprises with the aim of determining the WEEE categories\products with the most significant potential for reuse and to examine the critical success factors for these enterprises to operate. Preliminary proposals to integrate reuse/refurbishment practices into the Irish WEEE waste management structure are outlined. The social dimensions of reuse are also discussed I.

Abstract-Power systems with a large share of inherently intermittent energy sources require new approaches to system operation. Demand side management is seen as one potential resource for maintaining power balance in a future energy system with large amounts of volatile renewable energy generation. Existing demand response programs require flexibility in a set time frame from the electricity consumers in reaction to economic incentives. For a more detailed qualitative analysis of consumer flexibility, not only price but also notice time are imperative parameters. Former has been studied in numerous references whereas the impact of the latter has not yet been examined in depth. This paper presents a review of existing demand response programs and reflects on consumers' flexibility with respect to notice time. While some schemes include fixed notification schedules, others allow for variable notice time, or even continuous updating. In this paper, the consequences of notice time and update intervals on flexible electricity consumers are studied in Demand Bidding model with continuous forecast updates.

“…This has been investigated in previous work, where it was shown that Northern Ireland Water (NIW) could make significant savings on electricity costs by implementation of price-based pumping optimisation [12]. Costs would be minimised when a Real Time Pricing (RTP) tariff (reflecting the actual wholesale cost, or System Marginal Price [SMP], of generating electricity) was used, a conclusion echoed in [13]. In the Irish Single Electricity Market (SEM), an 'Ex-Ante' forecast (EA1) of SMP is made available to market participants at 11:00 h one day in advance (D-1) and it is on this basis that pumping could be scheduled.…”
