Location

The operational Callagheen Windfarm is located in Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Northern Ireland, approximately 6 km north-west of Garrison. Developed by ScottishPower Renewables and constructed in 2006, the site comprises 13 Siemens wind turbines with a total generating capacity of up to 17 MW which have been operational for approximately 20 years.

Current Stage

ScottishPower Renewables (UK) Limited (SPR) is seeking to repower the operational Callagheen Windfarm, creating a more efficient site, resulting in fewer wind turbines whilst generating a much greater installed generating capacity.

Currently, the operational Windfarm produces up to 17 megawatts (MW) of green energy from 13 turbines.

 Up to 54MW

Total generating capacity following the proposed repowering.

 50m

Increased hub height enabling greater energy capture.

 Up to 180m

Maximum turbine tip height within the proposed design envelope.

Community Consultation

Early consultation is key to the way SPR develops projects, and throughout the development process SPR seek to ensure local communities and stakeholders are given the opportunity to provide feedback and are kept informed of project progress.
