Thank you so much to The Irish Times and Caroline O'Doherty for sharing our story and to Fergus and all the team at Murphs Gastro Pub at Derragarra Inn. It's fantastic to see such a big response to the project but not that suprising given the current situation with energy security for Irish homes and businesses. Our team at GKinetic Energy are determined to see river energy done right, starting right here in Ireland where the direct benefits of clean, reliable energy are delivered right to those alongside these waterways 🙌 We have the tech and we definitely have the demand and we are currently fundraising to get these projects operational as quickly as possible. Anyone interested please do give us a follow, every comment and like really does make such a huge difference to us and is a boost to our team ⚡

A Co Cavan pub is to seek planning permission to use a world-first technology that would allow the premises run on power from the river outside its front door.

Fergus Murphy of Murph’s Gastro Pub in Butlers Bridge, Co Cavan, said he was hopeful they would be the answer to soaring electricity bills.

“We are experiencing higher and higher energy bills and more uncertainty about our future energy security. Meanwhile, we’re watching energy literally flowing past us out the window,” he said.
