Waterford department store gets green light for solar panels

A department store in Waterford has received the green light for the installation of solar panels. 

An application for planning permission was submitted to Waterford City and County Council in March 2022 by Shaw and Sons Limited. 

The decision was made this week (April 2022) with two cited conditions. 

The proposed green energy initiative development at Shaws Department Store at Meagher's Quay and Great George's Street will consist of the installation of photovoltaic panels on the existing roof structures. 

It also includes all associated site works.
