The $26 million solar farm in Milo has been in the works several years. The project should be completed early next year.

We are delighted to announce that BNRG Renewables have been shortlisted as a Sustainability Finalist in the 2021 SFA National Small Business Awards.

The aim of the awards is to celebrate the achievements of small business in Ireland.

We look forward to the Awards ceremony in April 2021!

CO KILDARE will be the location for Ireland’s first commercial solar farm with the granting of planning permission for sites in Naas and Hortland.

Irish solar energy specialist BNRG has struck new electricity-supply deals in the US state of Maine, boosting its total investment there to €250 million.

US investment giant Carlyle is buying eight solar-powered electricity projects from Irish business BNRG in a €110 million deal.

Dublin-based BNRG develops and operates solar farms in the Republic, Europe, the US and Australia. The company confirmed on Tuesday that it is selling eight solar projects that it is building in the US state of Maine to Acadia Renewable Energy, an affiliate of $221 billion (€187 billion) investment business, Carlyle.

High grid connection costs resulted in a solar strike price in Ireland’s first Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) auction “significantly higher than anywhere else in Europe” according to the Irish Solar Energy Association(ISEA).

Dozens of solar farms will begin springing up across the country next year after the first contracts for the supply of energy from the sun to the national grid were announced.

When you think of the US solar energy market, places such as Florida, California, New Mexico or Arizona might be the first to spring to mind. But that’s not where Dublin-headquartered BNRG Renewables is seeking to plough ahead.

David Maguire, Chairman of ISEA, spoke at the Climate Action meeting with the Joint Oireachtas Committee, highlighting issues with planning and grid connection as barriers for domestic and commercial solar development.
