They’re calling out big utilities and grid upgrade costs being dumped on consumers, arguing that UK-style tax funding could slash bills. Ideas include time-based incentives to use power when renewables are abundant, slashing VAT on electricity to 5%, making heat pump installs tax-free, expanding EV grants to used cars, launching a scrappage scheme for gas guzzlers, and boosting rural electrification. Their goal? Empower consumers to drive Ireland’s energy transition toward independence, savings, and sustainability.
