Currently the Rural Electrification scheme continues, but is primarily concerned with upgrading the quality of the network ( voltage fluctuations are still a problem in parts of Ireland-particularly in rural areas ) and making three phase supplies available to larger farms and rural businesses requiring it.

Electrification also results in higher performance, lower maintenance costs and lower energy costs for electric locomotives.

Electrification with 600V DC and 750V DC are also seen in private lines.

Around 1880, not only were railways serving the area, but this was the point where the tram systems coming north from the city, met the Hackney tram system, and so it became a busy interchange, with a depot opening in 1873 .< ref >< cite >' Hackney: Communications ', A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume 10: Hackney ( 1995 ), pp. 4-10 Date accessed: 1 November 2006 .</ ref > Electrification commenced in 1902 and by 1924 a service was commenced between Stamford Hill and Camden Town along Amhurst Park.

Electrification of some of the heavy haul coal lines commenced in 1986.

Electrification of the line commenced in the 1950s and by January 1959 the line was electrified as far as Great Bentley.

Electrification is at 3 kV DC, with the exception of the new high-speed lines, and of two recently electrified lines in the south of the country which are at 25 kV AC.

Electrification is provided by a 3 kV DC system, except at the junctions with railways of foreign countries, and covers.
