Operating wind farms



Airtricity has over 360MW of wind energy in the development pipeline in Northern Ireland to add to its operating wind farms at Tappaghan (19.5MW) and Bin Mountain (9MW). 

Based in Omagh, Co. Tyrone, Airtricity Developments NI Ltd has been established to identify, gain consent and develop suitable sites for the construction of wind farms in Northern Ireland.  This is done in full consultation with local communities, with sensitive and professional planning in our environmental assessment. 

The attractive renewable incentive scheme for England, Wales and Scotland was extended to Northern Ireland in 2005, making this market attractive for renewable electricity development.  Airtricity is also examining opportunities to acquire development assets in this region.
