Ballymore Eustace
Water Treatment Plant
Ballymore Eustace is the largest Water Treatment Plant in Ireland and over the next 5 years will enhance its status as a state of the art facility, developed to its full potential in serving Dublin City's water consumers. The plant serves the water needs of approximately 1/3 of the population of Ireland.
The next phase in its development will have a contract duration for 4.5 years with a total value of €70M.
The plant is on the shore of Poulaphuca Reservoir and supplies over 250 Ml/d of treated water to Dublin City. It was conceived in 1936 as a 166 million m3 reservoir in a catchment of 312 km2, with the dual purposes of water supply and hydro-electric power generation.
Initially a Design Build Operate and Finance Pilot, it was re-launched in 2004 as a 'traditional' procurement project.
