A clear opportunity to establish nineteen Bio-CNG stations in the southeast region has emerged following the findings of a report that biomethane could solve 47% of the region’s energy needs and create 240 jobs.
The South East Energy Agency (SEEA), a not-for-profit organisation that covers Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford and Waterford, recently unveiled the report — part-funded by Gas Networks Ireland — entitled ‘The Potential of Renewable Gas and the Development of Bio-CNG in Ireland’s South East'.
