Republic of Ireland’s Greengate Biogas will hold a community consultation event for its first biomethane plant in Powerstown, County Carlow on 10 April – ahead of an anticipated planning application submission in Q3.

The firm has attracted investors such as Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, CI Advanced Bioenergy Fund I, Atlas Renewables and Energex Partners.

Greengate Biogas aims to take a leading role in Ireland’s transition to renewable energy by focusing on biomethane production through the development, construction, and operation of large-scale centralised anaerobic digestion plants.

The Powerstown plant is slated to  process up to 700,000 tonnes of agricultural residues (cattle and pig slurry, farmyard straw manure and poultry manure) to produce approximately 250 GWh of biomethane and capture 30,000 tonnes of biogenic CO2 annually as well as fertiliser.
