A wind farm is already operating here

Booltiagh (2) — connected to the grid in 2013, 0.1 km from this application's site, with 12.0 MW maximum export capacity, feeding the Booltiagh 110 kV node. SEAI records its status as Connected.

This is a record about the location, not about this application. Several applications can sit at one wind farm — extensions, repowers and amendments among them — and this one may be unrelated to it. Matched by name and position from SEAI's Wind Farms in Ireland (June 2022 snapshot, CC-BY 4.0), so it records what had connected by that date rather than what is generating now.

Grid

Nearest substation: BOOLTIAGH (110 kV), 0.1 km away.
Association: The application names BOOLTIAGH as its connection point.
Available capacity: 2.9 MW of firm generation capacity available at BOOLTIAGH.

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.

Recorded by this tracker each time the register was checked. It begins when we first observed the application, not when the application was made.

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.
