  • Galetech Group | e-Fuels

    Galetech is advancing e-Fuels through Irish research facilities and global renewables, delivering scalable, carbon-neutral fuel solutions. e-Fuels Galetech is a leader in the renewable energy sector, specialising in wind, solar, and energy storage solutions. We are committed to pioneering next-generation technologies - including e-Fuels - to accelerate the global energy transition. 2027 E-Fuels Research Facility 2030 100mw Marhera Excelerated 2030's Emoru 1GW Our Pathway In Ireland, Galetech is launching a state-of-the-art, modular research facility designed for rapid deployment. This facility leverages our deep industry experience to unlock stranded renewable energy resources and bring innovative e-Fuel solutions to market. The initial rollout will include a commercial-scale facility of up to 40 MW, capable of producing as much as 15 million litres of e-Fuel per year. This output represents roughly 10% of Ireland’s expected contribution to the EU’s 2030 mandate for synthetic aviation fuel. In parallel, Galetech is advancing two major renewable energy projects in Kenya. The initial phase aims to harness 1 GW of combined solar and wind capacity within the next decade. This dual-region strategy reflects our long-term commitment to driving the adoption of e-Fuels, reducing global carbon emissions, and supporting sustainable economic development. Why e-Fuels e-Fuels - also known as electrofuels - are synthetic fuels produced using renewable energy, offering a carbon-neutral pathway to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They are created through electrolysis, a process that uses renewable electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. The renewable hydrogen is then combined with captured CO₂ to form energy-dense hydrocarbons such as e-methanol, e-diesel, and e-kerosene. These next-generation fuels are fully compatible with existing engines, fueling systems, and global energy infrastructure. This makes e-Fuels a powerful solution for sectors that are difficult to electrify, including aviation, shipping, and heavy-duty transport. Ongoing advancements in electrolysis technologies and carbon capture are driving greater efficiency and cost reductions, bringing scalable e-Fuel production closer to commercial reality. e-Fuels represent a critical bridge to a cleaner, more resilient energy future without requiring a complete overhaul of today’s transport systems. CO2 Conversion Process The three essential components of e-fuel production are renewable electricity, water and carbon dioxide. The e-fuel process mimics the processes of nature, such as trees taking in sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. By converting CO2 from the atmosphere into a renewable e-Fuel we replace conventional fossil fuels thus helping reduce future CO2 levels in our atmosphere. Projects Research Facility in Ireland e-Fuels Kenya at GW Stages e-Fuels View More The Market The European Union has committed to a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and achieving climate neutrality by 2050. In the aviation sector alone there are mandates for >0.7% e-Fuel in 2030 rising sharply to 35% e-Fuel by 2050. Simply put, there’s an EU mandated demand for >500 million litres of e-Fuel in 2030 for just the aviation industry, with similar mandates in place for maritime and road transport.

Case Study Project Gallery Filter by Tags Lidar Measurements Met Mast Installation Services Nacelle Mounted Lidar Installation Permanent Lidar Solar Monitoring Systems FAQs 1. What does “behind the meter” mean? Behind the meter refers to energy generation, storage, and consumption that occurs on the customer’s side of the electricity meter. These systems supply energy directly to a site rather than exporting it to the grid, allowing customers to reduce energy costs, manage demand, and improve resilience. 2. What types of customers are suitable for behind-the-meter solutions? Behind-the-meter solutions are suited to commercial and industrial customers with significant or variable energy demand, including manufacturing sites, data centres, logistics facilities, and large commercial buildings. They can also support customers seeking improved energy resilience or reduced exposure to grid constraints. 3. Do behind-the-meter systems export electricity to the grid? Not necessarily. Many behind-the-meter systems are designed to minimise or avoid export altogether. Where export is required or beneficial, systems can be configured to operate in both behind-the-meter and export modes, subject to regulatory and grid requirements. 4. How do behind-the-meter solutions reduce energy costs? Cost savings are achieved by maximising on-site renewable generation, optimising battery storage usage, and managing demand to reduce peak consumption and network charges. This reduces reliance on grid electricity and helps stabilise long-term energy costs. 5. Do you provide ongoing operation and optimisation? Yes. We provide ongoing monitoring, operational support, and optimisation to ensure behind-the-meter systems continue to perform as intended. This includes performance tracking, system adjustments, and support as site energy needs evolve.

  • Quarry Tree Wind Farm Project | Galetech Group Renewable Energy Development

    Learn about the Quarry Tree Wind Farm Project by Galetech, delivering sustainable renewable energy development with expert engineering and community focus. Quarry Tree Wind Farm Project Quarry Tree Wind Farm is a proposed wind energy development. It would comprise of wind turbines with blade tip heights of up to 200m, each expected to generate around 6.0-7.2 megawatts. The project would also include turbine foundations, access tracks and crane hardstands, underground cabling to connect the turbines, an on-site electricity control building and a grid connection to the appropriate node on the national electricity network. Wind Farm Output 72MW Turbines 10 Homes Powered 54,600 CO₂ Saved 46.900 tonnes of CO₂ /year Community Fund Up to €400,000/year Locations The Quarry Tree Wind Farm outline map currently includes sections of Coillte property in its proposal In addition to third party lands. If you have any Coillte related queries about the proposal, please contact Coillte: lsinfo@coillte.ie FAQs Working together: Galetech Energy Developments & FuturEnergy Ireland. FuturEnergy Ireland is also developing a wind farm on the same ridge in parallel with Quarry Tree Wind Farm. This adjacent project is known as Brackley Wind Farm located approximately 5km north-west of Ballyconnell and 3.5km south-east of Swanlinbar in Co. Cavan. FuturEnergy Ireland is a joint venture company owned on a 50:50 basis by Coillte and ESB, launched in November 2021. The company’s ambition is to develop more than 1GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, making a significant contribution to Ireland’s commitment to produce 80% of electricity from renewable sources by the end of the decade. Both companies share similar goals in supporting a resilient, low-carbon electricity system in Ireland. In recognition of the fact that our projects are adjacent and are progressing on similar development timelines, we have agreed to work closely together and to support each other in the completion of surveys and technical studies where appropriate. To help ensure a coordinated and consistent approach, the same planning consultant is preparing the separate planning consent applications for both Quarry Tree Wind Farm and Brackley Wind Farm. While each project will be assessed on its own merits, this collaborative approach will support good coordination of technical assessments and community engagement. This respectful cooperation will help ensure that the design of both projects is considered in a complementary manner, and that we communicate with the public in a clear and coordinated way, so the local community is kept informed and up to date with progress. What is Shadow Flicker and is my house going to be affected by it? Shadow flicker is the name given to a phenomenon caused when the sun is behind the turbine blades, as it rises or sets, casting a moving shadow over a small opening in a building, such as a window, creating a flickering effect within the building. This can only affect properties within a few hundred metres of the turbines. A shadow flicker assessment forms part of every planning application we submit. Current guidelines stipulate that shadow flicker must not exceed 30 hours per year, or 30 minutes a day. That’s why we design turbine layout to avoid this phenomenon. Where it could occur, we install solar sensors on the top of the turbine, which will slow or shut down the turbine for a period of time, therefore mitigating the effect. Thanks to technology and accurate calculations, which can pin point the time when shadow flicker could occur, turbines are shut down automatically to prevent shadow flicker. Is my house going to be affected by noise from the wind turbines? The noise emitted from wind turbines has been reduced significantly over the last decade. Modern design has drastically reduced the noise of mechanical components, so that the most audible sound is that of the wind interacting with the rotor blades. Even in quiet rural areas, the sound of the blowing wind is often louder than the turbines. As part of an Environmental Impact Assessment, we must demonstrate during the planning process that noise levels will not adversely affect local residents. Noise levels are monitored before and after construction, and turbines are shut down if they exceed permitted limits. Will my house be affected by low frequency noise and infrasound? Infrasound, or Low Frequency Noise (LFN) are sound waves with frequencies below the lower limit of human hearing. These noises are generated naturally within the atmosphere which surrounds us. They can also be generated by a wide range of human-created sources, such as factories, cars, air conditioning, or wind farms. Studies have confirmed that LFN and Infrasound levels produced by wind farms are below accepted thresholds. There is currently no scientific data to suggest that the levels of LFN or Infrasound emitted by wind turbines make humans ill. Under EU law, we must carry out a comprehensive EIA and that includes expert assessments of the potential impact on local residents – including noise, amplitude modulation and infrasound. Will local wildlife be adversely affected? We will be carrying out a comprehensive EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) as part of the planning process, consulting all relevant statutory and environmental bodies to ensure that any potential impacts on wildlife are fully mitigated. For example, where a proposed wind farm location is found to be in the flight routes of birds, and bats, adequate turbine buffer distances would be incorporated into planning and design to ensure that turbine blades are not in close proximity to these flight routes. We have third party environmental consultants and ecologist working on our sites for many years, monitoring wildlife, flight paths and risk collision before submitting a planning application. As for livestock, wind turbines do not have any noticeable impact. Cattle, horses and sheep graze around the wind turbines undisturbed. How will public consultation take place? In accordance with planning regulations and Irish Wind Energy Association (IWEA) best practice, we will be holding a series of public information events that will be advertised. There will be a dedicated project website that will be updated on an ongoing basis. Members of the consultation team will call door-to-door within a 1-2km radius of the proposed development on three occasions before a planning application will be submitted so that local people can ask questions and raise any concerns. The project and consultation team will also hold 3 public clinics before a planning application is submitted ensuring the public are kept updated from early design through to final design. The consultation, development, planning and construction phases can take up to five years. What is the benefit to the community having a wind farm in our area? A wind farm will deliver significant local benefits, including up to 100 construction jobs, permanent operation and maintenance roles, and a substantial community benefit fund to support local projects. It will also boost local government revenues subtantially in the form of counil rates. Nationally, the project contributes to Ireland’s climate action goals, supporting renewable energy targets set in the Climate Action Plan. Will local residents get free electricity? No, but the project will include an annual ‘near neighbour’ payment for homes within a 2km radius of each turbine as part of the project community benefit fund. What will the visual impact be? Assessing visual impact is part of the planning process. We will provide photomontages to represent the visual impact and we will discuss these with the local community at the consultation clinics, when the layout is designed. Photomontages will also be included in the planning application. Are there going to be overhead lines? No, the wind farm and grid cables will be installed underground.

Under EU law, we must carry out a comprehensive EIA and that includes expert assessments of the potential impact on local residents – including noise, amplitude modulation and infrasound. Will my television or mobile phone reception be affected? It is possible, though rare, for operating wind turbines to interfere with TV and mobile reception. Potential problems are normally identified pre-construction and avoided with good design and layout. It is our responsibility and commitment to rectify interference caused by our turbines post construction. We consult RTE in advance of construction at an early stage of development and design. Will local wildlife be adversely affected? We will be carrying out a comprehensive EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) as part of the planning process, consulting all relevant statutory and environmental bodies to ensure that any potential impacts on wildlife are fully mitigated.

Offaly. Cush Wind Farm intend to submit a planning application for a 110 kilovolt electricity substation, underground electricity line, an electrical control unit and all associated works Q2 2026. Project Milestones Locations The Cush Wind Farm layout currently includes sections of Coillte property in its proposal in addition to other third party lands. If you have any Coillte related queries, please contact is info@coillte.ie Wind Turbine FAQs What is Shadow Flicker and is my house going to be affected by it? Shadow flicker is the name given to a phenomenon caused when the sun is behind the turbine blades, as it rises or sets, casting a moving shadow over a small opening in a building, such as a window, creating a flickering effect within the building. This can only affect properties within a few hundred metres of the turbines. A shadow flicker assessment forms part of every planning application we submit. Current guidelines stipulate that shadow flicker must not exceed 30 hours per year, or 30 minutes a day. That’s why we design turbine layout to avoid this phenomenon. Where it could occur, we install solar sensors on the top of the turbine, which will slow or shut down the turbine for a period of time, therefore mitigating the effect. Thanks to technology and accurate calculations, which can pin point the time when shadow flicker could occur, turbines are shut down automatically to prevent shadow flicker. Is my house going to be affected by noise from the wind turbines? The noise emitted from wind turbines has been reduced significantly over the last decade. Modern design has drastically reduced the noise of mechanical components, so that the most audible sound is that of the wind interacting with the rotor blades. Even in quiet rural areas, the sound of the blowing wind is often louder than the turbines. As part of an Environmental Impact Assessment, we must demonstrate during the planning process that noise levels will not adversely affect local residents. Noise levels are monitored before and after construction, and turbines are shut down if they exceed permitted limits. Will my house be affected by low frequency noise and infrasound? Infrasound, or Low Frequency Noise (LFN) are sound waves with frequencies below the lower limit of human hearing. These noises are generated naturally within the atmosphere which surrounds us. They can also be generated by a wide range of human-created sources, such as factories, cars, air conditioning, or wind farms. Studies have confirmed that LFN and Infrasound levels produced by wind farms are below accepted thresholds. There is currently no scientific data to suggest that the levels of LFN or Infrasound emitted by wind turbines make humans ill. Under EU law, we must carry out a comprehensive EIA and that includes expert assessments of the potential impact on local residents – including noise, amplitude modulation and infrasound. Will my television or mobile phone reception be affected? It is possible, though rare, for operating wind turbines to interfere with TV and mobile reception. Potential problems are normally identified pre-construction and avoided with good design and layout. It is our responsibility and commitment to rectify interference caused by our turbines post construction. We consult RTE in advance of construction at an early stage of development and design. Will local wildlife be adversely affected? We will be carrying out a comprehensive EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) as part of the planning process, consulting all relevant statutory and environmental bodies to ensure that any potential impacts on wildlife are fully mitigated. For example, where a proposed wind farm location is found to be in the flight routes of birds, and bats, adequate turbine buffer distances would be incorporated into planning and design to ensure that turbine blades are not in close proximity to these flight routes. We have third party environmental consultants and ecologist working on our sites for many years, monitoring wildlife, flight paths and risk collision before submitting a planning application. As for livestock, wind turbines do not have any noticeable impact. Cattle, horses and sheep graze around the wind turbines undisturbed. How will public consultation take place? In accordance with planning regulations and Irish Wind Energy Association (IWEA) best practice, we will be holding a series of public information events that will be advertised. There will be a dedicated project website that will be updated on an ongoing basis. Members of the consultation team will call door-to-door within a 1-2km radius of the proposed development on three occasions before a planning application will be submitted so that local people can ask questions and raise any concerns. The project and consultation team will also hold 3 public clinics before a planning application is submitted ensuring the public are kept updated from early design through to final design. The consultation, development, planning and construction phases can take up to five years. What is the benefit to the community having a wind farm in our area? A wind farm will deliver significant local benefits, including up to 100 construction jobs, permanent operation and maintenance roles, and a substantial community benefit fund to support local projects. It will also boost local government revenues subtantially in the form of counil rates. Nationally, the project contributes to Ireland’s climate action goals, supporting renewable energy targets set in the Climate Action Plan. Will local residents get free electricity? No, but the project will include an annual ‘near neighbour’ payment for homes within a 2km radius of each turbine as part of the project community benefit fund. What will the visual impact be? Assessing visual impact is part of the planning process. We will provide photomontages to represent the visual impact and we will discuss these with the local community at the consultation clinics, when the layout is designed. Photomontages will also be included in the planning application. Are there going to be overhead lines? No, the wind farm and grid cables will be installed underground.
