Bank of Ireland said it will install more than 200 new ATMs this year as work continues on the renewal of its entire ATM fleet, which aimes to improve reliability, accessibility and energy performance across the network.
In total, about 650 new devices will be deployed to every Bank of Ireland branch on the island of Ireland as part of a €60m investment.
Bank of Ireland has 182 branches across the island of Ireland - 169 in the Republic of Ireland and 13 in Northern Ireland. All branches are included in the ATM replacement programme.
The bank has already installed 168 new machines in 46 branches from Donegal to Wexford.
Bank of Ireland said its new ATMs have greater cash processing capacity and will reduce energy use by more than half.
The ATMs can be used for both withdrawals and lodgements and the majority will "recycle" cash - cash deposited can be used for withdrawals.
Alan Durcan, Director of Distribution Channels at Bank of Ireland, said this marks the bank's biggest single investment in ATMs in over a decade and will ensure customers in every county benefit from the most modern and efficient machines.
"The new ATMs support our sustainability ambitions through lower energy use, while also delivering better reliability and improved accessibility for day‑to‑day banking," he said,
"The renewal of our entire ATM fleet is progressing well, and by year end we will have completed the next phase, with more than 200 additional ATMs replaced by the latest machines," he added.
