Public Exhibition

In September 2023, RES presented preliminary plans for the proposed Glenhead Solar Farm located approximately 2.5km southwest of Limavady. Since then, we have been refining and improving the preliminary design, which would continue to sit sensitively within the existing landscape whilst maximising its generating capacity to meet the challenges of increased grid costs and enable clean, renewable electricity to still be delivered at the lowest cost to the consumer.

In 2024, we brought forward plans for a re-designed scheme comprising up to 80MW of clean, low-cost solar generated electricity and a battery energy storage system of up to 100MW to help increase the flexibility and generation opportunities of the site. 

We are keen to engage with the local community and as part of our pre-application consultation and have held a number of public consultations in the local area to share more information about the project and to enable you to provide us with your feedback.

Please contact us for more information.

We will also be launching an Online Public Exhibition on Thursday 27^th June. The online event will be hosted on this website.

As part of the Online Public Exhibition, RES will be offering individual telephone or video call appointments between 10am-2pm and 4pm-6pm, on Thursday 27^th June, for anyone wishing to discuss the proposal further or ask specific questions. 

Appointments should be booked in advance. 

To book an appointment or for further information please contact Pauric McCloskey at pauric.mccloskey@res-group.com or by calling 028 2844 0588.

The public exhibition initiates a consultation period being run by RES to gather comments on the proposal.

The closing date for comments is Wednesday 17^th July. Comments will still be accepted after this date but may not be considered in relation to the design development.

Please note that comments submitted to RES at this time are not representations to the determining authority (Strategic Planning Directorate Department for Infrastructure). There will be an opportunity to submit representations to the determining authority should an application be made.

Hard copies of the exhibition material will also be available on request. Please contact us for more information.
