PL18-296 for the restoration, part demolition and extension to the rear of an existing house, along with the installation of a new sewage treatment sewage, percolation area and all associated site and landscaping works

The restoration, part demolition and extension to the rear of an existing house, along with the installation of a new sewage treatment system, percolation area and all associated site and landscaping works

Ten year planning permission for the development of an up to 100MW Battery Energy Storage Facility that will provide energy services to national grid. The development will consist of construction and operation of up to 34 metal containers to store up to a project total of up to 100MW (13.2 tons of Lithium lon) sealed battery cells each with entrances, fire supression systems, Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning systems, Inverters, control systems, other electrical components, security lighting and ancillary infrastructure and all associated works including security fencing and ancillary grid infrastructure on lands at Kellistown East, County Carlow.

Permission for a 10 year planning permission for the development of a synchronous condenser grid support facility, which will connect to the adjoining ESB Kellistown Electricity Substation. The proposed development will have a projected life span of 50 years. At the end of life the proposed development can either be decommissioned or refurbished to extend its life. The development is to be located within a site compound c. 1 ha. It will regulate reactive power on the electricity network and will consist of the following elements: a building (c. 540 sqm. c. 10m high) to house equipment including a synchronous condenser with flywheel, lube oil skid, air compressor and pumps. Equipment to be located outside the footprint of the building but within a fenced compound will include cooling equipment (c. 160 sqm. c. 3m high) 6 No. modular containers to house electrical and control equipment (total area of c. 195 sq m c. 5m high), a step-up transformer, an auxiliary transformer, an external circuit breaker, electrical balance of plant, 1 No. firefighting water tank, above ground oil separator and collection pit c. 100m of underground cabling ducts and cable to the adjoining ESB substation, balustrade boundary fencing, security entrance gate and CCTV, all other ancillary and miscellaneous site works to include site clearance, site access, internal roads and development of areas of hard standing and lay-down area. The proposed development will connect by underground cable to the Electricity Supply Board (ESB) 220kV substation adjoining the western boundary of the proposed development site. This underground cabling will not form a part of the transmission networks as defined in Section 2(1) of the Electricity Regulation Act 1999

To construct a two-storey dwelling, appropriate waste water treatment system and associated percolation area, new entrance off existing laneway, bored well, 6 no. stables with associated tack and feeding room, hard standing area and all ancillary site works and landscaping

Of 110kV underground electricity cabling and all associated ancillary site development works. The proposed development of the underground electricity cabling will comprise 3 No. power cable ducts, 2 No. communications ducts and 1 no. earth continuity duct of c.43 metres in length which is to be installed in an excavated trench. The cabling will extend from and connect with permitted 110kV underground electricity cabling (under An Bord Pleanála reference ABP-313139-22) on the L30535 public road to a line bay in the Kellis 220kV substation
