This project holds a grid connection offer

EirGrid's connection batches record an offer for this application with a maximum export capacity of 50.0 MW, connecting at the Cauteen node. EirGrid lists it as Seskin Storage, applicant Raptor Storage 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: CAUTEEN (110 kV), 0.12 km away.
Association: Nothing states a connection point and the place name does not match a station, but CAUTEEN is only 0.12 km away — close enough that it is usually, though not always, where a project like this connects. Counted separately from the match rate.
Available capacity: 8.1 MW of firm generation capacity available at CAUTEEN.

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.

No lease rates or valuations are published here, and nothing on this site is an offer or a recommendation.
