Oriel Windfarm is set to lodge a planning application with An Bord Pleanála later this week for its proposed offshore wind farm in the North Irish Sea.
It will have a combined generating capacity of up to 375 megawatts , which is the equivalent of the energy needed to power about 300,000 homes and which will reduce the country's carbon emissions and its reliance on imported fossil fuels. Based on these timelines, Oriel would become Ireland's first operational commercial scale offshore wind farm.
This is a new type of formal consent that must be granted by the Government before a proposed offshore wind farm project can apply for planning permission to An Bord Pleanála.
