Eglish Wind Farm

MDE were an integral member of the expert construction team appointed by ESB to carry out work on the Eglish Wind farm project at Donemana in County Tyrone. We were responsible for the installation of the wind farm’s electrical system. The farm comprised of six turbines with a nominal output of 3MW each. The scope of our work included all electrical works associated with the electrical substation, including procurement, installation, testing, and commissioning.
