So far, 61 farmers within a 25 km radius have agreed to supply feedstock to the plant and take back biofertiliser.
With the Biomethane Capital Grant Scheme now fully pledged to planned projects, it could be 2026 before another capital expenditure scheme opens for anaerobic digestion.
The measure is pitched in the National Biomethane Strategy as an 'important policy tool' for boosting the demand for biomethane.
Stephen Robb reports on the Fertiliser Association of Ireland's visit to dairy farmer Alastair Taylor in Antrim.
The new fuel station, located at Junction 14 Mayfield, allows gas-powered vehicles to refuel with compressed biomethane.
CycleØ Group said it has initially identified sites for AD plants in Kildare, Cavan, Galway and Limerick.
IrBEA’s National Bioenergy Conference is set to take place this Thursday, October 10 at the Royal Marine Hotel, Dún Laoghaire, Dublin.
If successful applicants accept the grant offer, they must have their anaerobic digestion plant constructed and operational by December 2025.
The different scales of anaerobic digestion plants and solar farms, along with their merits and the opportunities for farmers, were discussed at this year's Ploughing Championships.
