DP Energy has been developing its early stage projects off the Irish coast since 2016 and today\u2019s announcement will provide the foundation for the delivery of the projects.<\/p>\n<p>DP Energy CEO, Simon De Pietro, said: \u201cI\u2019m thrilled Iberdrola has decided to enter the Irish offshore wind space, and to do that in partnership with DP Energy. Our two companies are already involved in a successful collaboration in South Australia and this next venture, in our home country, will increase the availability of low-cost green electricity for homes and businesses across Ireland and take us closer to helping achieve the country\u2019s ambitious Net Zero targets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DP Energy and Iberdrola are already working on the Port Augusta Hybrid Wind and Solar Project in South Australia. The 320MW project is currently under construction and is expected to be operational toward the end of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The projects involved in the DP-Iberdrola deal include the Inis Ealga Project off the coast of Co. Cork, and the Clarus Project off the coast of Co. Clare \u2013 both based on floating wind technology. Further developments to be announced off the east coast are expected to be based predominantly on fixed foundation technology.<\/p>\n<p>For further information contact:<\/p>\n<p>Simon De Pietro:
