An Coimisiún Pleanála has delayed its decision on Shannon LNG's proposed liquefied natural gas terminal in North Kerry. The company seeks a 10-year planning permission for the Shannon Technology and Energy Park, which includes a floating storage and regasification unit.

A power plant and battery storage system were granted planning permission in March 2022 but are under judicial review. The overall development was previously refused in 2023 but the High Court overturned this decision. An Coimisiún Pleanála missed the initial deadline of September 22, 2022, and the revised deadline today, citing case complexity, without setting a new deadline.
