Moanmore Lower Green Energy Project
- Ireland faces an extraordinary challenge to move its energy system from one primarily based on fossil fuel to one dominated instead by renewable energy. We believe that wind energy can play a central role in Ireland’s transition to a low-carbon economy by 2050.
- The project is a proposed 3 turbine windfarm, located on a 21-hectare site neighbouring the townland of Moanmore, near Kilkee, Co. Clare.
- This site has been designated as an open to consideration area by Clare County Council as part of the Clare County Development Plan 2017 – 2023 (Renewable Energy Designation) due to its strategic regional and national importance and the favourable conditions for wind energy generation.
- The site was selected following extensive local examination, taking into account the proximity to residential properties, natural heritage, landscape and visual impacts, archaeology, hydrology and many other considerations.
Project Updates
Please note that as of September 2024, the project was renamed from Moanmore South Green Energy to Moanmore Lower Green Energy.
