Mayo Renewable Power got planning permission for a combined heat and power station. One of the large pieces of the jigsaw was to get raw material, wood, from Coillte but it could not because it was shipping it out of the county. Doing that and talking about add value to the product seems to be a contradiction. Mayo Renewable Power will have to import timber.
