for development consisting of minor amendments to the development permitted under Roscommon County Council Planning Register Reference 18/313 to provide for (i) the relocation of the permitted control substation approximately 810 metres to the north, (ii) omission of access track and underground electrical cabling associated with the permitted control substation, (iii) installation of approximately 530 metres of underground electrical cabling to connect the proposed control substation to permitted wind turbine T1 and (iv) all associated site development access and reinstatement works at
Derrane and Roxborough Townlands, Roscommon, Co Roscommon.
to erect two number 2.3MW wind turbines, of up to 85 metre hub height and up to 82 metre rotor diameter with a total height not exceeding 126 metres, associated site works to include new internal site tracks, upgrading existing site tracks, turbine hardstands, control sub station, and cabling works, on site at
The development will consist of:- Minor technical amendments to the development permitted under Roscommon County Council Planning Register Reference 11/126 to provide for the relocation and redesign of the permitted control substation; the construction and re-alignment of internal site access tracks; redesign of permitted hardstand areas; re-alignment of cabling works; minor upgrade works to permitted site entrance; and all associated site development and reinstatement works at
development consisting of: Minor amendments to the development permitted under Roscommon County Council Planning Register References 11/126 and 18/313 to provide for the relocation of the permitted wind turbines and associated infrastructure (site roads and crane hard- standings); amendments to the turbine dimensions to allow for a maximum overall tip height of up to 150 metres and all associated site development and reinstatement works. (The maximum total combined output of the wind turbines will not exceed 4.9 megawatts) at
Permission for development consisting of amendments to extant planning permission ABP-307726-20 and will provide for: 1. Erection of two Enercon E138 turbine models in lieu of the Vensys 121 turbine models agreed with the Planning Authority, under condition 4 (a) of planning permission ABP-307726-20; Turbine T1 will have a hub height of 95.53m, a blade diameter of 138m and a blade tip height of 164.65m; Turbine T2 will have a hub height of 81m and a blade diameter of 138m and a blade tip height of 150m. The combined output from the turbines will be 4.9MW; 2. Relocation of the access road serving the development; 3. The relocation of under-ground electrical cabling to the relocated access road and additional underground electrical cabling; 4. Increase in the hub height of turbine T1 to 95.53m, increasing the blade tip height from 150m to 164.65 m and micro-siting of turbine T1 by 12.75m. 5. Increased area of the hardstands associated with each turbine; 6. Amended substation structure to incorporate a proposed modular windfarm control room and switch room and an ESB modular MV station; 7. Inclusion of a battery storage unit and a transformer unit; 8. Revised site boundaries at
Permission for: (A) amendments to (i) extant planning permission PD/18/313, which amended planning application PD/11/126, (ii) extant planning permission ABP-303677-19, which amended planning permissions PD/11/126 and PD/18/313 and (iii) extant planning permission ABP-307726-20, which amended planning permission PD/18/313; (B) Permission for the development of a battery storage unit and a transformer unit.
