This page connects records for one planning case. Separate permissions, amendments and phases may belong to a wider development. A notified commencement date does not confirm that building work started.

Reviewed build intelligence

What the documents establish

Government document review

The current proposal replaces the previously consented but unbuilt facility under 21/1702 and removes selected existing equipment. The Commission case is pending. February 2026 drawings describe the proposal; they do not establish delivery, battery chemistry or a final equipment supplier.

3 official documents inspected · Checked 2026-09-05 · Official file index

Battery units and MV skids have separate dimensioned envelopes

Proposed in application · Typical illustrated BESS/MV arrangement, February 2026 planning drawing

What the evidence says
The drawing shows a BESS unit plan of 16.25 by 6.1 metres and a 4.85-metre unit elevation. The illustrated combined BESS-and-MV-skid arrangement is 38.2 metres long; its elevation includes a 5-metre overall level allowance.

Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: distinguishes the battery equipment envelope from the combined arrangement for foundations, access and transport coordination.

What is not established
No inferred number of batteries, aggregate energy capacity, chemistry, manufacturer or installed module count is published. Dimensions are not extrapolated into a project total.

BESS UNIT ELEVATION

Control room separates communications, SCADA and switchgear

Proposed in application · Prefabricated communications/control building arrangement

What the evidence says
The drawing shows an 18.4-metre control-room building with telecommunications and BESS SCADA racks, AC distribution, DC battery, metering and CCTV positions, plus a separate switchgear zone with an arc duct. AC split units are shown at the ends and an auxiliary transformer sits alongside.

Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: identifies electrical, control, cooling and arc-duct coordination requirements.

What is not established
Equipment ratings, selected manufacturers, final commissioning design and installed fit-out are not established.

AC Split Unit

New filter drains connect to existing site drainage

Proposed in application · New and retained infrastructure at the existing Kilathmoy substation compound

What the evidence says
The layout marks new filter drains tying into existing drainage, a hydrocarbon interceptor at the auxiliary-transformer area, and relocation of the wastewater tank and rainwater-harvesting unit.

Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: identifies interfaces with retained drainage and water infrastructure rather than treating the whole site as a new system.

What is not established
No final hydraulic calculation, interceptor model or condition discharge is established by this layout.

HYDROCARBON INTERCEPTOR · Issued 2026-02-27 · 22490-XX-XXX-DR-MWP-CE-5005 Rev 0, registered as Drainage Layout; received 2026-02-27 · Checked 2026-09-05

HYDROCARBON INTERCEPTOR

Two separately stated above-ground water tanks

Proposed in application · Water tanks shown on the proposed compound layout

What the evidence says
The layout labels two 25,000-litre above-ground water tanks by the compound entrance.

Why it may matter — interpretation
Interpretation: identifies a discrete tank package requiring access and services coordination.

What is not established
The layout alone does not prove fire-service acceptance, operational water availability, installation or purchase. Tank capacities are not combined with battery-energy or drainage-storage quantities.

Remaining document questions
  • Which later official decision, approved detail or revision changes these source-specific findings?
  • Has a phase-specific official record established the selected equipment or installed specification?

Selected pages of 3 government-published PDFs were visually inspected. Three technical drawings visually inspected. Later noise response and planner report were text-searched for revision context but are not counted as visually inspected supporting PDFs. Proposals do not establish procurement or installed work.

What this record establishes

Only exact linked records appear here. A missing appeal, commencement or completion entry means that evidence has not been established on this page. It does not prove that the event never happened.

Planning scale and individual notice or phase quantities remain separate. Notice quantities are not added into a development total or completion percentage.
