The Irish government’s target to achieve 80% of electricity generation from renewable sources, together with increasing consumer and societal demands for green products & services, is driving significant capital investment and innovation in the Irish renewable energy market. Executives who are involved in this industry are often required to make critical business and investment decisions and to balance risks vs rewards in a world of uncertainty. A robust, flexible, and user-friendly forecasting model is a critical tool in this decision-making process.
