The Shannon Airport Group has said it continues to prioritise sustainability initiatives.
Updating on its plans, as part of its end-of-year review, the group said it has commenced work on its 1.2 megawatt solar PV (photovoltaic) solar farm, which will be the first PV farm to be developed on an airfield in Ireland.
This project will be completed by summer 2025 and once operational will deliver between 15%-20% of the Airport’s electricity requirement.
Plans are also underway for the development of a new 40,000 sq ft R&D unit expected to commence in late 2025. In addition, the airport will continue with the modernisation of the airport terminal, focusing on creating a more efficient modern airport while enhancing the overall travel experience for our passengers.
