Orsted Moves Ahead With Farranrory Onshore Wind Farm in Ireland

By Dominic Chopping

 

Orsted said Thursday it is moving ahead with the Farranrory onshore wind farm in Tipperary, Ireland, after taking a final investment decision.

The wind farm will consist of nine wind turbines and have the capacity to generate 43.2 megawatts of green electricity, enough to power 25,000 Irish homes. The company didn't disclose financial terms.

The Danish renewable energy developer said the Farranrory project will be its 22nd wind farm on the island of Ireland and will bring the company's operational capacity across solar power and onshore wind in Ireland and Northern Ireland to over 500 megawatts.

Farranrory is expected to be fully operational by the summer of 2026, it said.
