Retractable Solar Panels for Ireland's 2030 Energy Goals

By 2030, Ireland needs to generate 80% of its electricity from renewables under the Climate Action Plan. Yet here's the kicker – last month's grid congestion reports showed we're already curtailing wind energy on 18% of days. Solar could balance that, but traditional installations? They're about as suitable for Irish farms as suntan lotion in a hailstorm.
