Restructured semi-states to invest in ‘next generation’ infrastructures
Under the New Economy and Recovery Authority (NewERA) plan, streamlined and restructured semi-States will make significant investments, over and above current plans, over the next four years in “next generation” infrastructures in energy, broadband, forestry and water.
NewERA will merge Bord na Mona and Coillte into BioEnergy Ireland, which will aim to be a global leader in commercialisation of next generation bio-energy, including a 14,700 hectares per year afforestation programme.
