Irish wind farms to open to public for Global Wind Day - Silicon Republic
13 June, 2014
A number of wind farms across Ireland will open to the public looking to learn more about wind energy both locally and nationally as part of this year’s Global Wind Day on Sunday, 15 June.
The day will be celebrated in more than 75 countries worldwide where wind farms are in operation. In Ireland, a number of educational tours and family events will take place, courtesy of wind-farm operators.
The Irish wind-energy generation sector has seen considerable growth in the last 20 years, and despite small setbacks, has seen recent developments, including the €30m wind-turbine project in Cork Harbour and the opening of the 9MW Energia wind farm in Hollyford, Co Tipperary.
