Bord na Móna is a climate solutions and renewable energy company supporting Ireland’s progress towards a climate-neutral future. In line with our transformative Brown to Green strategy, we have concluded all former peat operations and today we are committed to the delivery of renewable energy, low carbon enterprises, peatlands rehabilitation and sustainable waste management. Through strategic partnerships and joint ventures, we are scaling our renewable energy offering at pace to deliver a 5GW energy pipeline, including onshore and offshore wind, solar, biomass and biogas developments– all helping to safeguard Ireland’s green energy supply and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Leveraging this renewable energy pipeline to decarbonise key industries that are integral to Ireland’s economic growth is a key focus for Bord na Móna. Our Eco Energy Park offering is supporting sustainable industrial expansion by co-locating large companies from a range of sectors with a variety of renewable energy technologies across our landbank, enabling businesses to achieve low-carbon growth in their operations. We have been serving communities across Ireland for 90 years and continued community support remains a priority for us today. Every year we invest significantly in community benefit funds connected to our renewable energy and waste management projects. These funds provide important support for near neighbours, sports clubs, schools and community groups, as well as not-for-profit groups and projects delivering vital services to the communities in which they operate. Our commitment to community support importantly extends to the sustainable business community whose green innovators are pioneering climate-conscious change through sustainability focused products and services. Our Accelerate Green Programme presents a unique opportunity for scaling businesses in the sustainability space to develop the skills and knowledge required to expand in Ireland and beyond.
