 The morning breakfast event, which takes place in Treacy’s Oakwood Hotel in Shannon from 8:30am until 9:30am, will feature a presentation by ESB Networks’ divisional manager and area manager on the role the company plays in Shannon,  some key recent projects in the area and an overview of innovations being rolled out, particularly in the area of new connections in new housing estates, in business and in wind farms.

Improvements in the supply of this key resource are essential to ensure cost effective supply. It’s also an exciting time with the increasing roll-out of smart technologies and electric vehicles.
