Development Description:
10 year planning permission to develop a synchronous condenser grid support facility, which will connect to the adjoining ESB Dunnstown Electricity Substation in the townland of Dunnstown, Brannockstown, Naas, Co. Kildare. 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.12m 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. 160sqm., c.3m high); 6 No. modular containers to house electrical and control equipment (total area of c.195 sqm., 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 any lay-down area.
