The proposed development would consist of the erection and operation of a solar photovoltaic energy development which includes the erection of fixed solar panels on ground mounted frames, electrical transformer and inverter units.

The application also included distribution systems operator (DSO) sub-station, customer substation, underground cabling and ducting, storage containers, boundary fencing, security entrance gates, CCTV, internal access road and all associated ancillary activities.

A decision was due by Carlow County Council on March 25 however the application has since been "invalidated".
