The Commission for the Regulation of Utilities (CRU) has published the Final Determination for Price Review 6 (PR6), allowing €13.8 billion in revenues for ESB Networks and EirGrid from 2026 to 2030. This investment package, an 80% increase from PR5, aims to support the decarbonization of the Irish electricity system and accommodate rising demand.

Projects include the North-South interconnector and key upgrades in Dublin. User tariffs are projected to rise by 15% to 28% during this period due to increased infrastructure costs.
