Environment, Community and Local Government. Already he has held meetings with local
organisations promoting the benefits of AD and shown a keen interest in how these can help both the economy of Ireland and the well being of its citizens. The official opening was a showcase

A great day was had by all, not only the official guests but the by the many visitors from local businesses and the community wishing to know more about power generation from renewable sources.
