The company was also granted permission for a battery energy storage system, very nice.

Bit late, Ireland needs its own import point.

This is only for the power plant, the LNG terminal itself has still not gotten planning permission

To clarify, this is *not* an „LNG gas plant“.
It’s a 600MW gas turbine power station, just like any other gas turbine power station in the country, which will run from gas sourced from the national gas grid. It’s paired with a battery storage system, which was also greenlighted.

Can’t read the article but it does feel like we heaping a lot of pressure on judges to decide if projects should get the go ahead. It doesn’t make the process for applying very transparent or simple.
It means that planners and judges have to be aware of regulations, guidelines and government priorities.

Good, a slap in the face for Eamon Ryan ! they should have built more gas plants years ago.
Now , we have gas and oil in Irish waters, lets get it, refine on our Island and be energy independent at least for a while but we need to find more oil and gas reserves , there’s no greenwashing over the fact wind isn’t going to replace oil and gas any time soon, the world and our food supplied depend on it.
