Bord Gáis talks on Kinsale facility

BORD Gáis is investing almost €280 million in a gas storage facility in Northern Ireland and is in talks about a similar facility at Kinsale.

This is according to the company’s chief executive John Mullins, who said it is also investing over €1.5 billion over the next five years in wind energy, which will provide “a lot of jobs”.

The group is one of the main contenders to buy the wind energy operations of the Bandon-based SWS Group, currently owned by ION Equity.
