Join us for an insightful webinar where industry experts and sustainability leaders will explore the pivotal role of CPPAs in driving renewable energy adoption, reducing carbon emissions, and supporting Ireland’s commitment to achieving 80% renewable electricity by 2030. This session will give an overview on what is happening in the CPPA market in Europe, and also hear from both a buyer and sellers perspective. We willl also discuss the evolving regulatory landscape, key challenges, and opportunities for corporations looking to align their energy strategies with Ireland’s climate goals.

We are delighted to present our upcoming webinar 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐞: 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝, which has jointly been developed by Wind Energy Ireland, University College Cork and MaREI, taking place on 𝟎𝟖 𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫 at 𝟏𝟏𝐚𝐦. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eJC9UnCz Ireland has ambitious offshore wind targets set out by the Climate Action Plan to reach 20GW of offshore wind by 2040 and 37GW by 2050. As the Phase 1 projects progress through the planning system, and as the next phase located within in the south coast DMAP moves closer towards an ORESS auction, work is underway to develop updated guidance for the management of underwater noise particularly with respect to the assessment, monitoring and mitigation of any potential risks to marine mammals. There are different approaches to the management of underwater noise across Europe and considerable variability in data availability, marine conditions and species distributions in different bodies of water. Finding the right approach for Ireland needs to take all of this into account to ensure that any new guidance will be fit for purpose, and ongoing cross sectoral collaboration and stakeholder engagement will continue to be an essential element for successful outcomes. This expert panel of speakers joining us from their offshore wind industry, environmental NGO, consultancy, research and academia roles have been brought together to share their perspectives and discuss where Ireland is today with the management of underwater noise, the challenges and opportunities ahead with different approaches, and what may be needed to bridge the gap to be able to implement new UWN guidance for Ireland to best support both the protection of marine life and the development of ORE to reach our climate targets.

Following on from the publication of the 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 by the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications (DECC), we are delighted to announce this upcoming webinar between Energy Storage Ireland and DECC to discuss this milestone. In line with our Climate Action Plan commitments, DECC published the Electricity Storage Policy Framework for Ireland on 4 July 2024. The policy framework is a first of kind policy, which clarifies the key role of electricity storage in Ireland’s transition to an electricity-led system, supporting Ireland's 2030 climate targets, it may be considered as a steppingstone on Ireland’s path to net zero carbon emissions. We will be joined by speakers from DECC presenting the framework, followed by questions from the audience.
