This project holds a grid connection offer

EirGrid's connection batches record an offer for this application with a maximum export capacity of 54.0 MW, connecting at the Charleville node. EirGrid lists it as Garrane Wind Farm, applicant Garrane Green Energy Limited. The offer quarter is Q3 2026.

Source: ECP-GSS-1 Final Batch, May 2026. Matched to this application by the planning reference EirGrid publishes, confirmed against the county. An offer is a place in the connection process, not a connection: it does not mean the project is built or generating.

Grid

Nearest substation: RATHGOGGIN (38 kV), 4.83 km away.
Association: Matched to CHARLEVILLE on place name and proximity (6.98 km).
Available capacity: 8.8 MW of firm generation capacity available at CHARLEVILLE.

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.
