The Aberdeen of the Irish Atlantic rim – that’s the potential future for Shannon Foynes, the State’s second port after Dublin.
It faces an exciting future, with ESB’s Moneypoint site in County Clare to be transformed into a green energy hub, and plans by the ESB and Norwegian partner Equinor for a floating offshore wind farm of 1,400MW off the Clare and Kerry coast.
A report published in May 2020 by renewable energy consultants Carbon Trust said that not one of 21 ports and harbours in Ireland was capable of anchoring a construction project for offshore wind.
