March 2026
As part of our pre-application consultation, we hosted a public exhibition in the local area in June 2024. At this event we shared the preliminary designs for Glenhead Solar Farm and attendees were able to provide us with their feedback.
Since then, taking into consideration the site surveys and investigations, and community feedback, we have made some key design changes that we'd like to share.
As a result we held another public exhibition in the local area to share this information and to enable you to provide us with your comments.
RES staff were on hand to answer any questions or queries, and comment forms were available to gather feedback.
To advertise the exhibition and provide more information, we sent out a newsletter to addresses and community groups closest to Glenhead Solar Farm. A copy of this newsletter can be viewed here.
The public exhibition initiated a consultation period run by RES to gather comments on the proposal. The closing date for comments was Thursday 16 April 2026.
Please note that comments submitted to RES at that 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.
All information provided at the public exhibition is available to view below. Hard copies of the exhibition material is available on request. Please contact us for more information.
