76 Irish wind farms with 854MW capacity at risk of closure by 2030 due to outdated planning rules.
Wind Energy Ireland (WEI) warns up to 76 Irish wind farms with 854MW capacity could close by 2030 due to outdated planning rules, risking 20% of the country's wind energy capacity. WEI recommends extending planning permission duration and implementing repowering policies to update old turbines. Unchanged planning restrictions may obstruct the government's goal of 14GW wind energy production by 2030.
