Completed27 Mar 2026Ireland (country-wide, early-stage screening)Utility-scale ground-mounted solar PV (≥1 MW)public-b79d8a6ac7a8

Prioritize lower-risk utility-scale solar candidates in Ireland with strong grid access and manageable planning exposure for an early-stage development team.

This run prioritizes which 10 km Irish screening cells deserve next-stage diligence. It does not prove site viability.

Coarse screening only. Grid distance is a spatial proxy, protected-area overlap is a planning drag proxy, and usable area is not parcel control or engineering design.
