Offshore Wind Energy

Offshore wind is playing a major role globally in mankind's fight against climate change and our transition to a zero carbon economy. We have been involved in offshore wind generation since 2017 with a number of planned projects for Ireland and the UK.

Partnering with Ørsted to develop offshore opportunities

We are partnering with Ørsted to develop a pipeline of offshore wind development projects off the Irish coast and complementary renewable hydrogen projects.

Together, we will work together to help decarbonise the Irish electricity system and enable future renewable energy exports to Europe.

Wave Energy

Harnessing our natural resources – including wave - can help Ireland achieve its climate targets and provide clean energy for homes, farms and businesses.

Partnering with The Simply Blue Group on innovative wave project

Through our partnership with the Simply Blue Group, we are exploring the potential of generating energy from Ireland’s abundant wave resources off the Atlantic Coast. This is Project Saoirse - a five MW wave energy development located four kilometres offshore from Co Clare.
