The development will consist of the relocation and revised design of a single storey medium voltage electrical substation (previously permitted as part of a solar farm permission by Carlow County Council Planning Reg. 22/118) to provide a revised single storey 20kV substation building at a revised location within the overall permitted solar farm site. The application also seeks permission for a turning area adjacent to the proposed substation to accommodate emergency fire tender access and revisions to the permitted solar panel layout to accommodate the relocated substation and proposed turning area.
The development will consist of the extension of the operational lifespan of a solar farm permitted by Carlow County Council under Planning Reg. 22/118 from 35 No. years as permitted (by reason of condition No. 3 of permission Planning Reg. 22/118) to 40 No. years.
