The first wind turbines have successfully been installed at Farranrory Onshore Wind Farm in Co. Tipperary, Ireland: Ørsted’s 22nd wind farm on the island of Ireland.
Located near Ballingarry, the onshore wind farm will consist of nine Nordex N133 4.8 MW turbines and will substantially improve the Irish grid via a 33.5km 110kV connection to Ballyragget substation in Co. Kilkenny. Once fully operational the wind farm will have capacity to supply 43.2 MW of renewable electricity, which is enough to power up to 25,000 households.
Beyond generating more renewable electricity, Farranrory Wind Farm is the first development in the world to incorporate road markers made from recycled turbine blades. By recycling old blades from Ørsted’s recently retired Owenreagh 1 windfarm in Northern Ireland, the onshore development supports the company’s commitment to either reuse, recycle, or recover every wind turbine blade that reaches its end of life.
TJ Hunter Vice President of Onshore Ireland & UK, Ørsted said, “We are really proud to reach this milestone for turbine installation at Farranrory. It brings contemporary leading-edge turbine and grid technology together to help secure Ireland’s energy system. Using recycled blades from our oldest windfarm to make marker posts for our newest windfarm brings the meaning of circular economy to the next level. We are grateful to the community and stakeholders who are working with us every day to make this project a success.”
The development was awarded a contract under the Irish Government’s third onshore Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS 3) auction in 2023 and is expected to be fully operational by the summer of 2026.Once operational it will have a community benefit fund of over €280,000 per annum.
In 2025, Cork based Ørsted Onshore Ireland is constructing 179.2 MW of additional renewable capacity in Ireland, including our first two Irish solar farms. Together, these projects will bring Ørsted’s operational capacity across solar power and onshore wind in Ireland and Northern Ireland to over 550 MW.

The Clear Advantages of LED Technology
Superior Energy Efficiency
One of the most compelling benefits of LED headlights lies in their exceptional energy efficiency. LED headlights consume about 80% less energy than halogen lights, dramatically reducing the strain on your vehicle’s electrical system. This improved efficiency means your alternator doesn’t have to work as hard to generate power, which can extend battery life and potentially improve fuel economy.
For hybrid and electric vehicles, this energy savings becomes even more critical. For a battery-operated car, this reduced energy consumption means the strain on the power source is greatly decreased, and the driving range is increased. Traditional halogen bulbs waste most of their energy by converting it to heat rather than light, making them far less efficient than their LED counterparts.
Extended Lifespan and Reliability
LED headlights have a minimum of 20 times longer lifespan than their alternative halogen headlights. While halogen bulbs typically last between 500 to 1,000 hours, LED lights continue shining for up to 30,000 or more hours. This remarkable longevity translates to years of dependable service.
2000 hours lifespan means that it would need you to spend 60 years behind the wheel to burn out the LED lights. This extended durability reduces maintenance costs and eliminates the frequent headlight replacements that plague halogen bulb users.
LED headlights provide significantly brighter illumination compared to traditional options. Unlike traditional halogen bulbs, which produce a yellowish light, LEDs emit a crisp, white light that closely resembles daylight. This enhanced visibility proves crucial for night driving safety, allowing drivers to spot road signs, obstacles, and pedestrians more effectively.
LED headlight bulbs are capable of emitting an extremely high level of brightness that is much brighter and the light is much more concentrated than other car headlight bulb technologies. The wider and farther range of visibility significantly increases driver safety levels, particularly during adverse weather conditions.
Instant Illumination
Unlike some competing technologies, LED headlights can be on/off instantly, while halogen lights take a moment to reach their brightness even at low beams. This instant response proves vital in emergency situations or when driving in changing light conditions, ensuring optimal visibility when you need it most.
As AUTODOC Blog notes, “Driving safety and comfort largely depend on the headlight brightness. Therefore, every car owner must monitor the condition of their car lights.” LED technology makes this monitoring easier while providing consistently superior performance.
Environmental and Economic Benefits
