What are the challenges of storing energy from renewable sources?
We need to move away from the idea that storage is just about batteries. One of the best proven solutions is compressed air storage in salt caverns which can offer a viable long duration storage solution. These salt caverns do exist and the technology has been around for a long time. I see no reason why this cannot become a scalable solution.

The Irish Auditing & Accounting Supervisory Authority (IAASA) has taken a significant step towards enhancing sustainability assurance standards in Ireland. Following a comprehensive public consultation, IAASA has published a Feedback Paper that outlines its intention to adopt the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 Revised (ISAE 3000). This standard pertains to assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information. Adoption will take place upon the transposition of the European Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) into Irish law. The Feedback Paper reflects stakeholders’ views and paves the way for a more sustainable corporate environment in Ireland. For detailed insights, check out the full Feedback Paper on IAASA’s website. https://lnkd.in/eJey45Cf #Sustainability #CorporateResponsibility #Ireland #IAASA #ISAE3000 #CSRD

Excellent function today with CDP Ireland launching their Climate Change Report 2023. Key takeaways: - Science moves faster than business, but business can move faster than regulation! - Sustainability is no longer the hippie department, it is mainstream! - CFO involvement in sustainability brings the money link but also the scrutiny link. Thanks to Brian O'Kennedy and the Goodbody Clearstream team.. and of course CDP and other presenters.
