BIOPOWERBIOFUELS
Munster Technological University (MTU) has launched Ireland's first green biorefinery at its Kerry campus to convert grass into various products, including animal feeds and bioenergy. Funded by Enterprise Ireland and developed with University College Dublin and Carbery Group, the initiative aims to reduce Ireland's reliance on imported animal feed while supporting sustainable agriculture and local resilience.
A demonstration-scale facility is planned for 2026 at Farm Zero C in Co. Cork.
