Construction is officially underway on a meaningful energy infrastructure project in North Dublin. Kilshane Energy is investing €250 million in a new power plant, poised to bolster Ireland’s energy security and contribute to a more sustainable energy future.
A hybrid power plant integrates different technologies in order to produce more energy and manage it efficiently. For example, it can combine the output of a hydropower plant and that of a photovoltaic plant.
Kilshane Energy will begin construction of its new €250m power station in north Dublin later this year. The company has just signed a contract with Italian firm Ansaldo Energia to buy a 300MW open cycle gas turbine for the project. Kilshane Energy received planning approval last year for the power plant.
The planned facility will be situated on a 70-acre site in North Dublin, specifically zoned for heavy industrial development. This prime location offers immediate access to both gas and electricity grids, and also the T50 fiber network, positioning it as a key energy hub.
