Eco Eye tonight: Ireland makes waves with break-through energy

Tonight on RTÉ One at 7:00 pm, on the final episode of the current series of Eco Eye, Dr. Lara Dungan will look at Ireland's potential to solve the energy crisis with the power of the ocean. 

We all know an energy crisis is looming, and while we have all tried to become more energy efficient via solar power, wind power and turning off our lights before bed, there is still a long way to go.

As a country, we are largely dependent on conventional sources such as coal and gas, but as a tiny island we are surrounded by one of the most powerful energy sources in the world - the ocean!

Could Ireland be the first country to develop a new form of energy from the oceans? Dr Lara Dungan will investigate the recent breakthroughs and latest technologies in developing energy from the oceans in tonight's Eco Eye.

Tune into Eco Eye tonight on RTÉ One at 7:00 pm. Catch up on RTÉ Player.
