Bremore Ireland Port

The Project

Bremore Ireland Port DAC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Drogheda Port Company. The Company is developing a world class deepwater multi modal energy port on the most suitable site on Ireland’s east coast.

The Project, a public-private joint venture between Drogheda Port Company and Ronan Group Real Estate, will add significant port and port logistics capacity consistent with national ports policy. This includes the provision of suitable facilities for green hydrogen and offshore wind turbine storage\assembly.                

As a new distribution node in the Greater Dublin Area located between Balbriggan and Drogheda on the M1 economic corridor, it will contribute to National and European climate objectives such as decarbonisation of transport, the generation of renewable energy and will support region related social and economic activity.

Drogheda Port Company have completed the necessary national public policy steps for the development of a new port development in deep-water to the south of the existing river port system. It is positioned on both the Dublin to Belfast motorway and rail line (in the port estate) and the first quays will be prioritised for offshore wind turbine lay down and assembly. Essential to the port logistics proposal is the complementary energy hub with capacity to generate green hydrogen and its potential green fuel derivatives. This greenfield development will contribute significantly to decarbonisation of heavy goods and marine transport.

The Bremore development is a project on the EU Core Network – Greater Dublin Area Port Cluster - and was added to the national port planning landscape as Government policy in December 2021. After a public tendering process Drogheda Port Company have partnered with Ronan Group Real Estate (www.ronangrouprealestate.com) to form a joint venture development vehicle. 

During 2022 – 2024, design studies and stakeholder consultation will deliver a planning submission for the Project. It will have four primary economic clusters: Port logistics, Alternative energy, Community, and Commercial, all intended to add value to the region’s social and economic development as envisaged by the regional councils’ development vision.

                                           The Project will consist of four core developments
