A public meeting is taking place in Athenry this evening over plans for a major power plant in Cashla.
The Cashla Peaker Plant would only operate during periods of high electricity demand, and if approved, would be one of the largest of its kind in Ireland.
Bord Gáis Energy are looking to build the Open Cycle Gas Turbine on a site around 3 kilometres from Athenry town.
The Athenry Power Plant Concern Group is hosting the information meeting at the Raheen Woods at 7:30 this evening.
