At ESB, we have been Ireland’s foremost energy company since our establishment in 1927. We are driven to make a difference by achieving zero carbon emissions by 2040. We are a strong, diversified utility operating right across the electricity market: from generation, through transmission and distribution, to supply. We also work in other related sectors where we can make a difference, including telecommunications, electric vehicle (EV) charging, home retrofits and more. We developed one of the first fully interoperable EV charging networks in Europe, now comprising of over 1,600 public charge points across the island of Ireland. ESB has installed 42 multi-vehicle, high-power charging hubs nationwide over the past two years and replaced over 300 chargers to increase the speed and capacity of the charging network.
ESB has been a leading independent generator in the UK for more than 25 years and has invested almost £2bn in generation and power network assets. ESB’s EV charging business has expanded into Great Britain under the ESB Energy brand, with an EV public charging network in London, Coventry, and Birmingham as well as ultra-rapid (300kW) charging hubs in Scotland, Wales, and England.
