Solar at Navan
Killary Lobinstown Navan , & Rathkenny , Navan Co. Meath
This project holds a grid connection offer
EirGrid's connection batches record an offer for this application with a maximum export capacity of 70.0 MW, connecting at the Gorman node. EirGrid lists it as Killary Solar Farm, applicant Ambeads Limited. The offer quarter is Q3 2026. This site's own grid match for this application is NAVAN, which does not agree. EirGrid assigns the connection point, so its node is the one to trust.
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
Association: Matched to NAVAN on place name and proximity (8.44 km).
Available capacity: 30.7 MW of firm generation capacity available at NAVAN.
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.
