This research uses data fusion and spatial statistics to combine official and citizen weather data, improving real-time, high-resolution wind forecasts across Ireland. By validating and correcting personal weather stations, the approach reduces uncertainty in renewable energy forecasting and supports efficient grid management toward Ireland’s 2050 net-zero targets.

This research examines how land is valued beyond economics, drawing on Irish culture, Indigenous knowledge, and Brehon law.
