Harmony Solar Farm Plans Unveiled | Ireland News

Harmony Solar is set to apply for planning permission for a colossal 210-hectare solar farm across eight sites near Hospital and Knocklong, designed to power for 40 years with over 800,000 sq m of panels—raised just enough for livestock to graze below. Fast-tracked under EU rules, approval could come within a year, with environmental checks already completed on biodiversity, heritage, and flood risks. The project aims to blend into the landscape with hedges and low-profile panels, while tapping into existing grid infrastructure—part of Ireland’s urgent push to meet renewable energy targets in the Mid-West region.
