Final Layout Published

Following on from public consultation events held in the locality in September and October 2021, we have progressed the project design and have now produced a final wind turbine layout.  The revisions to the draft layout previously presented are primarily associated with feedback from the public, and revisions to the site constraints arising from further studies. 

 It is intended that the revised layout will be the layout submitted with the planning application – which is envisaged to be lodged in the coming months.

The Draft Amenity Plan will seek to utilise these new access roads as a basis for most of the proposed trails for walking and cycling. Additional amenity links are also provided to create loops and increase accessibility within the site for the development.

A further Public Information evening will be held on Tuesday 13th August 2024 from 5.00pm – 8.30pm at the Community Development Centre, The Barracks, Ballycumber, Co. Offaly, R35 KC82. 

Powering Green Together

Bord na Móna and SSE Renewables have launched a 50:50 joint venture which will target the delivery of up to 800MW of new renewable onshore wind energy across the Midlands.

This partnership includes the proposed Lemanaghan Wind Farm located in north-west Offaly.  Since the first announcement of this proposed wind farm in 2021, Bord na Móna has appointed a project Community Engagement and Stakeholder Team including a designated Community Liaison Officer to engage with local communities and near neighbours.

This team remains in place and your local Community Liaison Officer, Colm will continue to be available to meet residents as before and is contactable at 087 4143305.

The joint venture partnership is fully committed to continuing to inform and engage with you through an active communication programme. We are finalising the project design currently and will circulate updates to you in the coming months.
