said the Diageo investment was “really great news for the future development of Ireland’s thriving food and drink industry, and also for the wider national economy”.
Colin O’Brien of Diageo, category head of global beer supply, said the group’s plans for a brewery in Kildare, and developments at St James’s Gate, would enable growth in overall beer exports from Ireland in a sustainable way. The new facility will contribute to Ireland’s critical economic and climate policy goals, such as supporting the transition to a low carbon economy while also increasing both food and drink production and associated jobs, he believed.The Newbridge facility will initially use wood-chip boilers and switch to renewable electricity through contracts with external suppliers, said Mr O’Brien, while St James’s Gate will use biogas if it becomes available in the quantities needed or electric boilers.
Efforts to reduce packaging, including glass, aluminium cans and kegs, and to decarbonise furnaces were progressing well — as was its pilot project with tillage farmers embracing regenerative farming. This approach seeks to work in harmony with the natural environment by putting back more than it takes out and is increasingly regarded as an effective way of minimising environmental damage associated with food production, especially in reducing emissions.
