From the Briefs desk
- Data centres in Ireland: the rules, the numbers and the Naas application under appealA six-hall, gas-supported data centre campus at Naas was granted by Kildare County Council in August 2025 and is now on appeal to An Coimisiún Pleanála. The register shows what has been filed and decided, the official statistics show data centres used 23% of Ireland's metered electricity in 2025, and the two sides of the wider argument use different numbers to measure different things. PlanningLeads takes no position on the application.Read the brief
- Solar under the microscope: what the public record shows as the CCPC investigates bid-riggingOn 25 September 2026 the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission searched businesses in the solar panel industry over suspected bid-rigging. No business has been named, and a search is not a finding of wrongdoing. What the public record does show is the market being investigated: 56 solar tender notices from 37 public buyers since 2020, and 2,100 planning applications naming solar work in the last twelve months alone.Read the brief
- Intel's €5bn Leixlip investment: what the planning record actually showsThe €5bn programme was announced on 13 July. The paper trail at Kildare County Council started three and a half months earlier - and the single application on file tells you exactly what kind of investment this is.Read the brief
- Ground first, green last: Ireland's landscaping and groundworks pipeline, as told by the planning registerEvery build starts with a digger and ends with a planting plan. In the twelve months to September 2026 the planning register named landscaping on 5,057 applications and groundworks on 2,174, council by council and month by month, long before anyone was on site.Read the brief
