Greencoat Renewables 'reviewing' mainland European acquisition opportunities

Greencoat Renewables, the State-backed wind farm operator, has said it is currently "reviewing" a number of acquisition opportunities in mainland Europe.

Up until July, Greencoat - which is part-owned by the Ireland Strategic Investment Fund - was restricted from buying wind farm assets outside of Ireland. Here, it owns 11 wind farms, having added to its portfolio with a project in Laois earlier this week.
