From a hard-nosed commercial standpoint, wind and solar coupled with energy storage make most sense, so it is definitely worth working together to advance these options. This then

It’s clear that like all leading economies the Isle of Man cannot rely on gas and oil indefinitely. While the island’s target to achieve net-zero by 2050 may seem far away, most of us worry about the current price of energy. Graph showing options to generate renewable power, store energy and utilise power on the Isle of Man.
Opportunities for the Isle of Man to provide stabilising power to GB or ROI from a large-scale baseload power station, e.g. biomass or a small modular reactor? Neither option is without challenge, but likely provide the greatest potential for export. These options have not been explored in the analysis.
Environmental: The development of a 700-800 MW capacity wind farm in Manx territorial waters will provide the IoM with renewable, zero carbon electricity. Such a development will play a key role in decarbonising the Isle of Man economy to meet net zero targets.
75% of electricity generation to come from renewable or carbon neutral technology by 2035. The Isle of Man Government has set out a 10-point action plan aimed at supporting the island’s transition to net zero emissions by 2050. This includes increasing renewable energy penetration. Emissions from transport sector to be reduced to net zero by 2050.
The annual electricity demand on the Isle of Man has gradually declined since 2012. Between 2012 and 2019, annual demand decreased by 17 GWh, or approximately 5%. The drop in annual electricity demand has been driven by decreases in residential and commercial demand; however, industrial demand has increased.
SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS In response to the global climate emergency, the Isle of Man Government has legislated to reduce its emissions to net zero by 2050. This target has implications for both electricity demand and generation mix.
