230 SOLAR panels

Glanua completed the installation of 230 solar panels at the Thurles RWSS on behalf of Uisce Eireann. Predicted annual energy yield from the system was 83,264 kWh per year of renewable energy, giving a CO2 Offset per annum of 40 tonnes.

Modified Hydroelectric Turbine

On the Kerry Central RWSS project, where we modified the client’s specimen design to relocate an existing hydroelectric turbine. This innovative idea meant we avoided having to pump water that passes through the turbine back to the raw water tank located at the highest point on the site.
