FT to support Greengate Biogas development in Ireland

Fehily Timoney and Company has signed a contract with Greengate Biogas for engineering, technical and planning services to support the development of the company’s biogas operations in Ireland. Fehily Timoney and Company is leading the preparation of statutory consent applications for the first of Greengate Biogas’s centralised biogas facilities.

When fully established, Greengate Biogas will produce nearly 1.8 TWh per year of biomethane across multiple projects, representing approximately 3.5% of Ireland’s current natural gas demand and 30% of Ireland’s 2030 biomethane target, established in the recently published biomethane strategy. The projects will inject biomethane into the grid and produce fertilisers for farmers contributing to Ireland’s circular economy and green transition.

Director of Circular Economy and Environment, Bernie Guinan said “The collaboration between Greengate Biogas and Fehily Timoney and Company combining Danish and Irish experience is an exciting step forward in addressing the infrastructure needs for Ireland’s Climate Action Plan. The partnership will harness our expertise in renewable energy, planning, sustainable development, and innovative technologies, while leveraging Ireland’s unique challenges and opportunities in transitioning to a low-carbon economy.”
