Rose Energy will provide up to a third of Northern Ireland's sustainable energy obligations
Backed by a consortium of three major players in our agri-food
industry, Rose Energy has submitted a project proposal to the
government to build an energy plant which will convert agricultural
biomass into electricity. The government has indicated its support in
principle for the project, which will deliver up to a third of Northern
Ireland's renewable energy obligations. This website aims to inform you
of our plans for Rose Energy, why the plant is necessary and the
benefits it will deliver.
The power plant, which will be based near Glenavy in County Antrim,
will represent a trendsetting example of sustainable electricity
generation in Northern Ireland. Thanks to leading-edge technology, the
plant will use renewable fuel - poultry bedding and meat and bone meal
- to provide enough energy to power 25,000 homes. Rose Energy will
become a major local supplier of renewable energy. For more information
