The early involvement by Jennings O'Donovan in the renewable energy sector when wind energy was only beginning to develop in Ireland has allowed the firm to grow and develop in tandem with the market. The knowledge and expertise which we have gained over the past twelve years have enabled us to provide the technical services required for the complete range of activities required to take a project from conception through to all of the various stages to commissioning, including post construction site maintenance programs.
With our large number of Wind Farm Projects now at various stages, our office has considerable experience gained over recent years within this sector of the Irish Renewable Energy Market. We can now provide from within our own resources, at our one stop facility in Sligo, the opportunity for our clients to tailor a project to comply with their requirements. This service is provided in close cooperation with our clients, who we notify and consult with on a regular basis. It is our policy to take a prject forward in a safe, practical manner at all stages, for the benefit of our clients, the environment, local landscape and indeed the local community.
