Neoen has announced the start of construction on its 79 MWp Ballinknockane solar farm in County Limerick, Ireland. This marks the first utility-scale solar project in the region. The solar farm was a winner in Ireland’s RESS 2 auction of 2022 and is set to become operational by 2027.

Omexom and TLI Group have been appointed as contractors for the solar plant and the onsite substation, respectively. This venture will enhance Neoen’s growing presence in Ireland, adding to its existing wind and solar capacity which totals 190 MW.

Ballinknockane will provide electricity to 16,000 homes and aims to cut CO2 emissions by approximately 21,000 tonnes each year. The project will also support local community initiatives through a €1.8 million Community Benefit Fund.
