Paul Cooley, director of capital projects at SSE Renewables.

Ireland needs to build on the growing momentum behind offshore wind power, says Paul Cooley, director of capital projects at SSE Renewables.

Mr Cooley is one of the hosts of the Offshore Wind 2020 Online Conference, taking place Wednesday, July 1: www.offshorewind.energyireland.ie. The webinar is hosted by Energy Ireland and sponsored by SSE Renewables and A&L Goodbody. “We’re beginning to see momentum build behind the development of a new offshore wind energy sector in Ireland, but it’s critical we now turn that momentum into a real action plan to kickstart offshore project delivery in the waters around our island as quickly as possible.”
