Nothing on the map moves faster than its data: readings and schedules arrive every 15 minutes.

EirGrid Smart Grid Dashboard, 15-min, all-island. Supported by EirGrid Group Data; not affiliated with or endorsed by EirGrid.
Wind sites: SEAI (2022, CC-BY 4.0) + OpenStreetMap; every turbine in a farm turns at the same rate, set by that farm's scheduled output (stopped at zero) where it is matched to a market unit, otherwise by its region's measured share. Rotor speed is not a per-turbine reading.
Glows and lit roofs: a plant or farm's scheduled output as a share of its capacity, from SEMO's 15-min schedule; a new value eases in over a couple of seconds. Only the three cables to Britain show flow, because only their flows are measured; inland lines never animate.
Unit names, schedules and metered output: SEMO and EirGrid Group (Supported by EirGrid Group Data); there are no per-turbine figures.
*Gas & other = generation − wind − solar (estimate); live, each stack follows its own plant's schedule.

Daylight and the dawn and dusk line: the sun's real position for now, computed.
Clouds: Meteosat infrared, the newest scan (about 20 minutes behind), refreshed every 10 minutes; brighter, colder cloud tops show more. Contains modified EUMETSAT Meteosat data 2026 (CC BY 4.0). Hidden if the newest scan is over 90 minutes old. Rings at plants mark a change in the latest 15-min schedule.
