Decision to grant planning permission for Cork solar farm overturned
A decision by An Bord Pleanala to grant planning permission for a proposed electricity generating solar farm in Co Cork has been overturned by the High Court.
In judicial review proceedings Environmental activist Peter Sweetman sought orders against both An Bord Pleanála and the State aimed at quashing the November 2018 decision giving the go-ahead for the solar farm on a 67.8 hectare site at Fiddane, Ballyhea, Co Cork.
