Projects - Inis Offshore Wind

Inis Offshore Wind in collaboration with Warwick Energy, an experienced independent offshore wind developer have identified a number of potential projects off the Irish coast and is initially looking to develop at least 1GW of renewable electricity capacity. This would constitute a significant contribution to Ireland’s renewable energy targets and provide enough electricity to power approx. 800,000 homes. The initial sites we are looking to assess are located in the Irish Sea off the East coast, but we are also assessing the potential of sites in the Celtic Sea and off the West Coast of Ireland.

This licence, if granted, will last for 5 years.

Wicklow

Inis Offshore Wind is investigating the feasibility of developing Wicklow Offshore Wind Farm proposed to be located a minimum of 8km and up to 22km off the Wicklow coast. Work began in early 2020 in response to the Irish Government’s Climate Action Plan. Should the project successfully progress through various consenting and development challenges ahead, it is hoped that the capacity of up to 500MW can be brought into production by 2030.
