Shannon Foynes Port Company is to invest €28 million in jetty infrastructure and a port logistics park.
It’s a significant step in transitioning the Shannon Estuary into a major international renewable energy supply-chain hub.
The development will include a significant expansion of the quay, and the creation of one of the country’s largest logistics buildings.
The Offshore Floating Wind Study by Shannon Foynes Port Company estimates that up to €12 billion in supply chain investment could be located on the estuary by 2050, with an opportunity to create up to 30,000 jobs.
