Blow for Trump as energy firm appeals ban on Doonbeg wind-farm plan

Clare Coastal Windpower Ltd, which is behind the wind-farm, have lodged an appeal to An Bord Pleanála against Clare Co Council’s decision to refuse planning permission for the €20m, nine-turbine plan.
If the wind-farm proceeds, 23 local landowners are set to enjoy a dividend, from lease payments from the energy firm.
