Company attempting to build three additional data centres on 65-acre north Dublin campus
The planning appeals board has told the AWS subsidiary, Universal Developers LLC, that it has examined the appeal and believes more information is required. Photograph: Getty Images has been hit with a fresh planning delay regarding its intention to build three new data centres in north Dublin.
An Bord Pleanála has written to AWS subsidiary Universal Developers LLC to clarify the impact of the proposed centres in light of the publication of the Government’s Climate Action Plan 2025. The AWS data centre campus extends to 65 acres at Cruiserath Road, Dublin 15, and has a combined power load of 73MW.
The appeals board told the applicants that it has examined the appeal and thinks that more information is required. In the letter, the appeals board said that it was seeking the applicant’s response to the recently published Climate Action Plan 2025 and the Environmental Protection Agency’s assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from 2023 to 2050 and whether these reports would have any impact on the company’s environmental impact-assessment report lodged with its planning permission application.
The letter from the appeals board comes more than 18 months after five third-party appeals were lodged with An Bord Pleanála in October 2023, contesting Fingal County Council’s decision to grant planning permission for the three data centres.
