An official event hosted by both companies was held close to the airport on Thursday 2<sup>nd<\/sup> June 2016 with over 100 guests in attendance, including the New Minister for Economy, Simon Hamilton MLA. This pioneering renewable energy project is also the first ground-based solar power station to be completed on the island of Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>The 4.83 Megawatts peak (MWp) solar farm, at Crookedstone Road, in Antrim, Northern Ireland was fully funded by Lightsource and connected directly by private wire to Belfast International Airport. Lightsource predicts the solar farm will provide 27% of the airport&#8217;s annual electricity demand. In the first month of connection, Belfast International Airport has noted their monthly operating costs have been reduced by 23%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>Simon Hamilton MLA, Minister for Economy, said:\u00a0&#8220;I commend Lightsource and Belfast International Airport for their innovate partnership in working together to harness the power of solar energy to improve energy efficiency and reduce their energy costs helping them to remain competitive in a global marketplace. \u00a0It clearly demonstrates how two progressive companies can work together to develop a project which is profitable, beneficial to business and, at the same time contributes to our decarbonisation and renewable energy ambitions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-super-image wp-image-24679\" alt=\"Crookedstone Road Solar Farm &amp; Belfast International Airport\" src=\"http:\/\/planningandbuildingcontroltoday.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Crookedstone-Road-Solar-Farm-Belfast-International-Airport-583x304.jpg\" width=\"583\" height=\"304\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Alan Whiteside, Operations Director at Belfast International Airport, said:\u00a0\u201cAs a business, we are committed towards sustainability, and being able to procure solar electricity is a huge benefit, not only towards lowering our carbon footprint but reducing our operating costs and providing pricing certainty for the future. We need certainty of supply and capability of supply, but it also has to be the right price and Lightsource demonstrates they are the right long-term partner for us. We were delighted that even on the first day of connection, the solar farm generated more power than we needed, and the airport ran for 9 hours on just solar power alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nick Boyle, CEO at Lightsource, said:<b> <\/b>\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be working alongside Belfast International Airport on this truly pioneering project and pleased to see a great turnout at our launch event, and extend our thanks to the Minister for officially opening the solar farm. This is the new world of electricity supply, where energy-intensive businesses can fix electricity pricing for the long-term.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Lightsource Renewable Energy visit <span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lightsource-re.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.lightsource-re.co.uk<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Liza Gray<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Marketing &amp; Communications Manager<\/p>\n<p>Lightsource Renewable Energy Holdings Limited<\/p>\n<p>+442031673678<\/p>\n<p>liza.gray@lightsource-re.co.uk<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lightsource-re.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\"><span>www.lightsource-re.co.uk<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LightsourceRE\" target=\"_blank\"><span>@LightsourceRE<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>Please note: this is a commercial profile<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solar energy alone powers Belfast International Airport for nine hours on the first day of connection thanks to Lightsource Renewable Energy\u2019s new solar farm\u2026 Lightsource Renewable Energy, Europe\u2019s leading solar energy company, and Belfast International Airport, officially opened Northern Ireland\u2019s first ever large-scale solar farm recently.
