KTL Power Project: Castlebaggot – West Dublin, 220kV Project

KTL HV Power is proud to be progressing well on our critical project for ESB Networks at Castlebaggot. We are delivering the overhead line (OHL) element of the West Dublin 220kV Project — a vital infrastructure upgrade supporting Ireland’s growing energy needs.

This Project is now 90% complete:

- UG cable is live

- 10 of 12 towers retired

- 13 of 13 spans of double circuit conductor retired

- Completion targeted for end of May 2025

Key activities included building new gantries, retiring steel towers, and safely managing major crossings over roadways and railway lines — all while coordinating closely with farmers, local authorities, and developers in this fast-growing urban area. 

This progress wouldn’t be possible without the incredible teamwork across our management, engineering, and field crews — working day and night safely and efficiently.

A huge well done to everyone involved.
