Green Biofuels Ireland has commissioned a 30,000 tonne biodiesel<br />
plant in New Ross, Co. Wexford. Construction began on the<br />
facility in April 2007 and it is expected to be completed in 2008.<br />
Green Biofuels Ireland intends to commence the production of<br />
biodiesel from oil seed rape, recovered vegetable oils and animal fat.<br />
The raw materials for the facility will be sourced mainly from the company’s shareholders, which include existing RVO<br />
handlers, as well as Wexford Farmers Co-op which has 4,000 farmer shareholders.<br />
Green Biofuels Ireland was successful in obtaining excise relief under the Government’s MOTR scheme, as discussed in<br />
Chapter 3. The plant will produce 34 million litres of biodiesel per annum.<br />
