This project consists of the construction of 19 wind turbines and all associated infrastructure including turbine foundations, hardstanding areas, borrow pits, access tracks, an on-site 110kV electrical substation, works to facilitate delivery of equipment to site and a grid connection. The 274,626 to 395,461 MWh of electricity produced by the proposed wind farm will be sufficient to supply the equivalent of between 56,590 and 81,488 Irish households with electricity per year. The proposed power coral wind farm will produce a significant amount of clean wind energy, which will help Ireland achieve its targets for 2030 and 2050. The project will have a positive long-term impact on climate and air quality, with a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by utilisation of the least cost renewable energy technology.
