The electricity sectors of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland are integrated and supply 2.5 million customers from a combination of coal, peat, natural gas, wind and hydropower. In 2022, 34 TWh were generated. In 2018 natural gas produced 51.8%, while wind turbines generated 28.1%, coal 7%, and peat 6.8% of Ireland''s average electricity demand. In 2020 wind turbines generated 36.3% of Ireland''s electrical demand, one of the highest wind power proportions in the world. While the United Kingdom
