Solar at Ardnacrusha
Within the townlands of Castlebank Parteen Ballykeelaun and Drummin , Ardnacrusha , Co. Clare
Grid
Association: The application names ARDNACRUSHA as its connection point.
Available capacity: 35 MW of firm generation capacity available at ARDNACRUSHA.
A nearest substation is a measurement of distance, not a statement of where this project will connect. Where a link is published it is because the application names the station, or because the project's own place name matches it and the two are close enough for that to mean something.

Own land near one of these?
We track every solar, wind and battery application in the national planning register — and the large ones made directly to An Coimisiun Pleanala, which never reach a council register at all — as they move through planning, and which substations still have capacity to take a connection. If you want to be told when something is lodged near your land, leave an email address.
Email us to be added to the list — we will only use it to send project alerts for the areas you name.
No lease rates or valuations are published here, and nothing on this site is an offer or a recommendation.
