The project will consist of 11 turbines with an expected total capacity of up to 47MW and will consolidate ERG’s presence in the region.

The Arthur Cox team that advised on the deal, drawn from the firm’s office in Belfast, was led by David White (Corporate and Commercial) and included Alastair Todd (Property), David Greatorex (Property) and Patrick Loughridge (Corporate and Commercial), working alongside ERG’s in-house Head of UK Legal Affairs, Lynette Purves.
