Poor, poor, Ireland. That must be just awful for them. Thank God we in America aren't at risk of hitting that 50% figure of energy supplied by wind or solar.
System Non-Synchronous penetration (SNSP) is a real-time measure of the percentage of generation that comes from non-synchronous sources, such as wind and HDVC interconnector imports relative to the
system demand. In the Irish grid this is limited to 50% for stability.
On average though 2013 renewables provided ~17% of total demand [http://www.eirgrid.com/media/EirGridAnnualRenewableReport201...].
