Rosslare Port is to outline plans to establish the southeast region as Ireland’s Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Hub, with the potential to create 2,000 jobs.

With a number of different offshore wind developments planned for various Irish coasts, many of the country's port facilities are planning to develop the required infrastructure needed to develop, install and maintain the offshore wind turbines.
