Annagh Windfarm was denied permission for the six-turbine farm over concerns it would have a damaging impact on whooper swans in the area. Photograph: Cyril ByrneA company controlled by Statkraft, the Norwegian government-owned energy group, has initiated High Court proceedings against An Bord Pleanála over its refusal to grant planning permission for a wind farm in Cork.
Annagh Windfarm Limited appealed that decision to An Bord Pleanála whose inspector concluded that while the impact on a number of species, both bird and mammal, could be mitigated or reversed, this was not true of the impact on the whooper swan.How Lidl accidentally took on the big guns of cloud computing
However, in relation to the whooper swan, she concluded that even considering proposed mitigation measures it could not “be determined with confidence that the proposed development alone during its operational phase would not result in a significant adverse collision impact on whooper swan”. As a consequence, she wrote, “the proposal would be inconsistent with the site’s conservation objectives” and should be refused.
