The Dunloe Hotel & Gardens - Ireland
A 5-Star hotel in southwestern Ireland is undergoing major reconstruction and in turn is looking to be energy self-sufficient.
The overall concept of the hotel is to integrate into its surroundings and accentuate the spectacular lush landscape.
To further develop the focus of harmony with the surrounding environment, W&P Engineering developed an energy concept that does not disturb the nature experience while providing complete independence and planning security.
The system uses a combination of a wind park, photovoltaics and hydrogen as an energy carrier to achieve full energy self-sufficiency without the need of a grid connection while reducing overall costs.
Additionally, the independent energy production and usage is presented to the hotel guests to add to the unique eco-friendly and sustainable experience of the hotel.

For industries with expansive local PV-generation and impending substantial electrical power requirements, a battery energy storage system (BESS) can be a cost- effective solution as opposed to upgrading the grid infrastructure. Complementing the BESS with fast-charging stations for electric trucks can help maximise the self-consumption of renewable electricity and at the same time reduce costs and emissions.
