Foreshore Site Investigation Licence Application

This foreshore site investigation licence application seeks consent to conduct surveys to establish the potential for offshore wind development off the Cork coast. This is not an application for a windfarm development. If the proposed survey work, together with desktop studies and stakeholder engagement, indicates the feasibility of bringing a project to the next step, that step will need to be progressed in accordance with the National Marine Planning Framework and other relevant legislation in due course including the new consenting regime for offshore renewable energy that has been legislated for through the Maritime Area Planning (MAP) Act (2021).
