A developer has been given the green light to extend planning permission for two data centre buildings in Cork after a “significant delay” in reaching an agreement to connect the centres to the electricity grid.
The former Mitsui Denman site in Little Island first had planning permission granted for the data centres back in 2017 and has already had the permission extended once, to the end of 2025.
Progressive Commercial Construction Ltd applied to Cork County Council in January to again extend the duration of the planning permission for another two years.
