The Meenadreen Wind Farm in County Donegal—Ireland’s largest onshore wind farm—is set for a major upgrade to enhance energy resilience and support the country’s ambitious renewable targets.

Project Details:

🔹Capacity: Currently 95 MW from 38 Nordex N90 turbines (each 2.5 MW), capable of powering up to 50,000 homes with clean wind energy.

🔹Location: Situated in Leghowney, South Donegal, the site offers stunning views of the Bluestack Mountains and is part of popular walking trails like the Leghowney Loop and Ulster Way.

🔹Upgrade scope: The approved upgrade will retrofit turbines with advanced technology to increase efficiency, reliability, and output, helping Ireland reach its goal of 80% renewable electricity by 2030.

🔹Environmental impact: Meenadreen reduces CO2 emissions by approximately 100,000 tonnes annually, contributing significantly to Ireland’s climate action efforts.

🔹Community involvement: Energia has invested heavily in local engagement, including renovating a historic cottage on-site as a shelter for walkers and establishing a community fund supporting local projects.

🔹Innovation: The wind farm has pioneered autonomous drone inspections to monitor turbine health, improving safety and operational efficiency.

🔹Economic benefits: The upgrade will create local jobs and continue to contribute to local authority revenues through rates and community funding for at least 25 years.

This upgrade strengthens Ireland’s renewable energy infrastructure, ensuring a more resilient and sustainable power supply for the future.
