Site planning risk brief

For a 10-year permission, for the construction and operation of a renewable energy development within a site boundary of c. 114 ha. The proposed development will consist of a development area of circa 71.7 ha including solar on fixed on ground mounted frames with a maximum height of 3 metres, 1 No. battery storage compound, 1 No. customer switchgear container, 1 No. 110kv grid connected single storey substation, 1 No. single storey customer substation and all associated electrical plant, inverter units, electrical transformers, battery units, cooling equipment, underground cabling and ducting, boundary fencing, security entrance gates, CCTV, upgrading of existing access road and new internal access roads and all associated ancillary activities. The proposed development will have a 35-year operational life from the date of commissioning. Revised by significant further information which consists of Provision of quantum of energy export (of up to 80MW) in the proposed development and storage capacity of proposed battery compound (of up to 80MWh). Clarification of energy export (of up to 15MW, no battery storage) of adjacent permitted development 15/1172 (extension of duration under 20/1052); Submission of details of adjacent permitted development 15/1172 (extension of duration under 20/1052); Provision of details of minor works to site entrance, construction traffic warning signage to public roadway, at proposed site entrance and also within internal haul routes; Clarification of extent of private roadway (haul roads) within the site; Provision of a fire risk assessment of hazards for on or near the solar array and battery storage compound; Provision of programme/schedule of works for proposed development and adjacent permitted development 15/1172 (extension of duration under 20/1052; Provision of amended Archaeological Impact Assessment.

For an amendment to the granted planning (Planning Reference: 221203) which comprised consent for a solar PV energy development and battery storage compound at Coolcarrigan, Timahoe West, Co. Kildare. Proposed amendments include; (1) An increase in the quantum of energy export that the solar park can produce from 80MW to up to 120MW (2) an amendment to the wording of the battery energy storage from 80MWh to up to 80MW, which amends the power output from the energy capacity to the rated power, to provide battery energy storage to greater flexibility in how it imports and exports the electricity to the grid (3) clarification of adjacent permitted development 15/1172 (extension of duration under 20/1052) increasing the energy export from 15MW to upp to 19.4MW)
