Bord Na Móna Shelves Clean Energy Hub Project
Bord na Móna have announced that it has shelved its €1bn Clean Energy Hub project due to the "absence of an inter governmental agreement between the Irish and British governments, as required under EU Directive 2009/28/EC".
The inter governmental deal was meant to see surplus energy being exported to the UK, but the company has said that it will not continue with the hub, focusing instead on a programme of projects "to develop renewable energy for the domestic market."
