Stena Line submit plans for tech park on Anglesey that could create 1,200 jobs
The proposals include space for technology and data centre buildings and a battery energy storage system (BESS) scheme, as well as over 15,000 sq ft of office space which will generate up 1,200 new jobs on the island
Plans for a £1bn tech park at a former aluminium works on Anglesey have been submitted. The Anglesey Aluminium site ceased smelting operations in 2009 and was later taken over by Orthios, which developed a materials recycling facility.
However, the business collapsed in 2022, resulting in job losses for up to 100 staff. Later that year, Stena Line, the ferry operator that has owned and operated Holyhead port for nearly three decades, purchased the 213-acre site.
They subsequently unveiled a 200,000 square metre industrial and office development as part of a low carbon campus. The plans include space for technology and data centre buildings, a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) scheme, and over 15,000 sq ft of office space, which could create up to 1,200 new jobs on the Island and support UK investment in data and renewable energy.
