Permission for a period of 10 years to construct and complete a Solar PV Energy development with a total site area of 38.08 hectares, to include two electrical substation buildings, six electrical transformer and inverter station modules, solar PV panels ground mounted on support structures, vehicular access, access gates and internal access tracks, one spare parts container, security fencing, electrical cabling and ducting, CCTV cameras and other ancillary infrastructure, drainage, temporary construction compound, landscaping and habitat enhancement as required and associated site development works and services. A Natura Impact Statement (NIS) will be submitted to the Planning Authority with the Application
to amend the design of the approved development (Planning Ref: 19888) which comprises consent for permission for a period of 10 years to construct and complete a Solar PV Energy development with a total site area of 38.08 hectares, to include two electrical substation buildings, six electrical transformer and inverter station modules, solar PV panels ground mounted on support structures, vehicular access, access gates and internal access tracks, one spare parts container, security fencing, electrical cabling and ducting, CCTV cameras and other ancillary infrastructure, drainage, temporary construction compound, landscaping and habitat enhancement as required and associated site development works and services at Hortland and Knockanally, Donadea, Naas, Co. Kildare subject to 28 conditions. Amendments proposed are: Extend the operational lifespan of the consent from 30 years to 35 years. The height of the solar panels will be reduced from 2.75m to a maximum 2.25m, with a reconfigured layout also now being incorporated; Although the height of the panels will decrease the solar modular rating and size will increase which will ultimately reduce the number of modules to be installed
