Construction has got underway on a large-scale €5m solar farm at the Aurivo dairy plant in Ballaghaderreen.

VERDE Energy Group, the Irish renewable energy specialist backed by Octopus Energy Generation, has started construction on one of Ireland's largest privately funded commercial and industrial solar developments at Aurivo's Ballaghaderreen facility under a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).
