Plans for a deepwater port at Bremore in Co Louth are to be unveiled by Drogheda Port Company and a private developer next week.

Ronan Group Real Estate is participating in a joint venture at Bremore with Drogheda Port Company.

“Bremore Ireland Port aims to deliver new port capacity and advance the shift to a green energy economy to support Ireland’s climate action and hydrogen strategy objectives,” they state.

Architecture firm Henning Larsen will present the plan at an event in Dublin on October 11th, which will include a speech by Minister for Housing and Local Government Darragh O’Brien.

Drogheda Port Company chief executive Paul Fleming and Ronan Group Real Estate chief executive Rory Williams will also speak at the invitation-only event.
