Overview

Ballycumber Wind Farm is an onshore wind energy project in Ireland, managed by NTR plc, a specialist renewable energy asset manager headquartered in Dublin. NTR has been investing in sustainable infrastructure since 1999 and today manages clean energy projects across Europe on behalf of three investment funds. The Ballycumber Wind Farm forms part of NTR's broader portfolio of wind, solar, and battery storage assets, contributing to Ireland's renewable energy capacity and Europe's clean energy transition. NTR was established in 1978 by Tom Roche to build Ireland's first toll bridge. Until 1999, the company was exclusively a toll road investor and operator, with interests in five Irish toll roads managed under public-private partnerships with the Irish State. From 1999, NTR began investing in sustainable infrastructure, transacting more than €3 billion in wind, solar, bioenergy, water treatment, energy storage, and recycling assets across Europe and North America. Between 2008 and 2015, NTR successfully exited these investments for net proceeds of over €1.2 billion. Today, NTR manages approximately 70 projects across seven European countries: Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, and Finland. The company manages clean energy projects on behalf of three investment funds, which invest in wind, solar, and battery storage. NTR is particularly well known for its engineering expertise, applying best-practice engineering principles across due diligence, procurement, construction, and the operational lives of its assets. Ballycumber Wind Farm represents one of the many renewable energy projects within NTR's managed portfolio. As Ireland continues to expand its renewable energy capacity to meet climate targets, projects like Ballycumber Wind Farm play a role in reducing carbon emissions and supporting the transition to a cleaner energy future. The wind farm contributes to NTR's mission of delivering strong, diversified, and predictable financial returns while contributing to a more sustainable energy future.

History

Ballycumber Wind Farm is an onshore wind energy project in Ireland, forming part of the renewable energy portfolio managed by NTR plc. NTR was established in 1978 by Tom Roche to build Ireland's first toll bridge. Until 1999, NTR was exclusively a toll road investor and operator, with interests in five Irish toll roads managed under public-private partnerships with the Irish State. NTR began investing in sustainable infrastructure in 1999, making its first investment in renewables through direct backing of Airtricity, an Irish wind energy company. Following this, NTR scaled and diversified, making further direct investments into sustainable infrastructure across the United States and Europe. Between 2008 and 2015, NTR successfully exited these investments for net proceeds of over €1.2 billion. Today, NTR is an investor in and asset manager of European clean energy funds. The company manages clean energy projects in Europe on behalf of three investment funds: NTR Wind 1 LP (Fund 1, completed 2015), NTR Renewable Energy Income Fund II (Fund 2, completed 2018), and L&G NTR Clean Power (Europe) III SCSp RAIF (Fund 3, open 2023). These funds invest in wind, solar, and battery storage assets. NTR currently manages approximately 70 projects across seven European countries: Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, and Finland. The company has deployed €2 billion in capital and manages 4.1 GW of assets, with 1 GW in development. NTR is particularly well known for its engineering expertise, applying best-practice engineering principles across due diligence, procurement, construction, and throughout the operational lives of the assets. Ballycumber Wind Farm is one of the projects within NTR's managed portfolio. As Ireland and Europe continue to expand renewable energy capacity to meet climate targets, onshore wind projects like Ballycumber Wind Farm contribute to reducing carbon emissions and supporting the transition to a cleaner energy future.
