Energia Drumlins Park Community Fund 2026

Energia Group is committed to playing a leading role in powering the energy transition across the island of Ireland and promoting a sustainable future. Energia’s Community Fund is designed so that communities benefit from the operation of its wind farms. The Drumlins Park Wind Farm in County Monaghan has set up a fund to support the local community in the Newbliss, Drum and Scotshouse area.

The fund is administered in partnership with Community Foundation Ireland with an overarching theme of Community Sustainability, and the following priorities:

• Childcare
• Basic community infrastructure (e.g. community spaces, playgrounds)
• Building community capacity (e.g. training programmes, community events)
• Culture and Heritage
• Social enterprise
• Energy efficiency
• Environmental sustainability, biodiversity and climate action

Charities and community groups can apply for up to €40,000, depending on the size of the organisation.
