Ørsted has taken final investment decision (FID) on Farranrory Onshore Wind Farm in Tipperary, the company’s 22nd wind farm on the island of Ireland.
The wind farm, which will consist of nine wind turbines and have the capacity to generate 43.2 MW of green electricity, is expected to be fully operational by the summer of 2026.` The FID follows the project’s successful bid under the Irish Government’s Renewable Electricity Support Scheme 3 (RESS 3) auction in September 2023. The RESS 3 auction had an average strike price of EUR 100.47 per MWh.
