The head of the wind energy industry body has said the sector is worried that state planning and environmental agencies may not be ready to deal with planning applications for offshore wind parks that are about to be submitted.

Noel Cunniffe, the chief executive of Wind Energy Ireland, also said clarity is needed on Government plans for floating wind energy.

"We are still worried that An Bord Pleanála, the National Parks & Wildlife Services and key environmental stakeholders are not ready for the six offshore wind energy planning applications which will be on their desks shortly," he said. "It is important that the next offshore auction takes place before the end of the year but also that we know when the subsequent auctions will take place and for what locations."

"Without these projects the idea that people will invest billions in floating wind farms in a country that has failed in the development of offshore wind energy is ludicrous.
