€200k approved for EV Centre of Excellence

Minister for Higher Education Simon Harris has announced this week that €200,000 has been allocated towards a project office for the proposed Electrical Vehicle (EV) Centre of Excellence coming to Mullingar.

The office will be located at the Longford-Westmeath Education & Training Board (LWETB) head offices at Marlinstown.

Minister Harris told the media at Bloomfield House Hotel on Monday (13 November) that the Barracks is still “being considered” as a location, as well as a number of other locations which haven’t yet been identified.
