About The Grid How the Grid Works Customer & Industry Library Newsroom Contact In the Community Home About In the Community When we develop the power grid in a region, the whole community benefits. To do that, new lines have to be put in place and that can only happen when we work closely with communities, local farmers and landowners. Through the appointment of Agricultural and Community Liaison Officers, sponsorship and corporate social responsibility initiatives, we interact with communities around the island and this helps us plan ahead in an efficient manner. If you are a farmer, landowner or member of the general public, find out how to contact the Agricultural Liaison Officer or Community Liaison Officer in your area by clicking here. We strongly believe that with a stronger power grid comes better opportunities. Find out how small businesses like Lolly and Cooks Bakery & Cafe and family run Boyne Fruit Farm benefit from having a secure and reliable power grid by visiting our stories page.
