Breakfast Business with Joe Lynam
A century ago only a quarter of the population had any electricity at all and few had running water. The newly independent State had little or no money but little it had it bet the house on one project: the building of the then largest hydro electric plant in Europe at Ardnacrusha in Co Clare. Today is the 100th anniversary exactly of the turning of the first sod to build that plant which provided enough electricity for the entire nation a century ago. JOw spoke to Brendan Shine is the Plant Manager for ESB at the world famous Ardnacrusha Generating Station.
