Supporting delivery of ILOS’ 222 MW solar cluster in Tipperary, Ireland

The ILOS ILOS Tipperary solar cluster has been successfully delivered, with construction, commissioning and energisation completed across the Erkina, Derrymore and Monaincha solar farms. The development is now fully operational and exporting renewable electricity to Ireland's national grid. 

The three sites are interconnected by medium-voltage cabling and connected to the grid through a newly constructed substation. Spanning more than 230 hectares, the development includes ground-mounted photovoltaic panels, inverters, transformers, underground cabling and associated infrastructure. 

With an installed capacity of 222 MW, the Tipperary solar cluster is among Ireland's largest solar energy developments and makes a meaningful contribution to the country's energy transition and long-term energy resilience. 

The scale and complexity of the programme presented distinct delivery challenges, including construction on bogland terrain, a challenging procurement market and tight delivery timelines.
