Statkraft’s North Irish Sea Array Planning Decision Deferred to Late February

An Coimisiún Pleanála has deferred its planning decision on Statkraft's North Irish Sea Array offshore wind farm until the end of February.

A determination on the proposed Irish Sea wind development had been due last week. However, the planning commission confirmed that it would not be able to deliver a decision on the project until late February.

The North Irish Sea Array application represents a major offshore renewable energy project put forward by Statkraft. The revision extends the statutory assessment window as the planning authority continues its evaluation of the scheme.
