DP Energy and Iberdrola have officially opened their new Ireland Offshore Wind Joint Venture Office in Horgan’s Quay, Cork City. This is the second DP Energy office in Cork, with their global headquarters based in Buttevant.
The Irish offshore team currently consists of 17 people based in Cork, with plans to expand the team throughout the various stages of project development. DP Energy entered into a Joint Venture with Iberdrola in February 2021 for a 3GW pipeline of offshore wind projects. DP Energy and Iberdrola have submitted Investigative Foreshore Licence Applications for three offshore wind projects around the Irish Coast:
- Inis Ealga Marine Energy Park, off the coast of Cork and Waterford (floating)
- Clarus Offshore Wind Farm, off the coast of Clare and Kerry (floating)
