Minister Sargent recently visited a renewable energy installation completed by Malahide company, Microstrain Ltd.
Commenting on the wind turbine and solar collector system the company had installed, Minister Sargent said that “Renewable energy solutions are an essential part of our future. It is imperative that we move away from our dependance on oil, not just for the sake of the environment but for our financial survival too. I’m very encouraged to see businesses moving into this market. Indeed, as my colleague Eamon Ryan has said ‘the recovery is green’ and investment in sustainable solutions offers us the best way to face up to our financial and climatic difficulties.”
Microstrain Ltd. provide a range of solutions for energy generation and waste treatment.
