Quick overview Former CEO of Bord na Móna and Airtricity, and founding member of Mainstream Renewable Power, Irish energy industry leader Eddie O’Connor has always been a visionary.
€20.55

The green energy entrepreneur made headlines with his reluctance to sell Airtricity and when the resulting counterbid failed, admittedly earning him millions, it spurred him to re-invest and launch Mainstream in 2008 at the onset of a worldwide economic collapse. A leading player in the renewable power field, Mainstream has gained a foothold in the global race for solar and wind energy.

A Dangerous Visionary comes at the opportune time. Eddie’s invaluable experience combined with a confident vision and unshakeable faith has created a powerhouse legacy that will inspire the next generation of environmentally conscious business leaders.

Girls Like You: The Long Road Back from Bessborough

O'Connell, Jacinta
9781786051370
Written with pathos and humour, Girls Like You is a reflection on growing up in the early 1970s in the Irish Midlands. It is a story of love and loss, secrecy and abandonment, forgiveness and integration. It deals with the fallout of this period of Irish history on one individual and her immediate family while exposing the cost of an Irish solution to an Irish problem, a cost which still reverberates in society today as the truth slowly trickles out.
