Neath Port Talbot Council has said establishing a company and investment board to deliver the Celtic Freeport is a key part of its Strategic Change Programme for the coming year.
The successful Celtic Freeport bid was set up by Associated British Ports, alongside Neath Port Talbot Council, Pembrokeshire County Council and the Port of Milford Haven in 2022 with the aim of becoming the first of its kind in Wales.
It gained Government approval in March, 2023, to supply floating offshore wind turbines at a site in the Celtic Sea, as well as developing green energy research and tax breaks for inward investing companies.
