en.Wedoany.com Reported - Irish renewable energy company Amarenco, in partnership with Greenvolt Next, will construct solar farm projects with a total installed capacity of 32 megawatts across three sites in County Cork, Ireland. The projects are expected to be completed by mid-2027 and will generate enough electricity to power approximately 38,000 homes annually.
Under the contract, Greenvolt Next will build three solar farms on behalf of Amarenco in Carrigaline, Cobh, and Timoleague, with the projects managed and delivered by Greenvolt Next. An official "groundbreaking" ceremony has already been held in Carrigaline. The land will remain under local ownership, preserved for future generations for their own use.
As part of the solar farm development, Amarenco has developed an extensive ecological plan to enhance biodiversity at each site. The company will integrate its ECHO soil health monitoring program across all three sites and collaborate with local ecologists to collect soil samples, accurately determining the conditions required for land regeneration, restoring carbon absorption capacity, promoting biodiversity, and improving water retention.
Once operational, a community benefit fund will also be established to support community and sports projects and activities in each area.
Owen Power, CEO of Greenvolt Next Ireland and UK, stated that the partnership with Amarenco will deliver three large-scale solar farms in Cork. By integrating cutting-edge technology, Amarenco will gain access to substantial solar energy to maintain its leadership in the green energy sector, while also helping to mitigate the impact of energy price fluctuations and providing stability for business performance.
Declan Cullinane, Managing Director of Amarenco, added that this marks a significant milestone for the company. Partnering with Greenvolt Next to install solar farms across three sites in Cork, the clean solar energy generated upon completion will be sufficient to power all households in Carrigaline, Cobh, and Timoleague. A project of this scale requires a partner with the vision, resources, and expertise. Together with Greenvolt Next, they will deliver a project that sets a new benchmark for large-scale renewable energy development in Ireland, and they look forward to working closely with local communities in each area.
