The Kilmullen/Coolnafearagh Solar Action Group is looking to raise funds and awareness.
A Midlands action group is hosting a community table quiz to raise funds for their campaign against a solar farm.
Residents on the Laois/Kildare border are raising concerns about the lack of meaningful consultation over a proposed 52-hectare industrial-scale solar farm.

The committee has been meeting regularly to continue raising awareness about the proposed solar farms and their potential impact on the local community.
There will be a Community Table Quiz this evening at 8pm in The Thatch Bar, Killenard, as a fundraiser and an awareness event.
