Codling Wind Park
generating a greener Ireland
Welcome to Codling Wind Park
Codling Wind Park is Irelands largest Phase One offshore wind farm in development in the Irish Sea, approximately 13-22 kilometres off the County Wicklow coast, between Greystones and Wicklow Town.
It will generate 1,300 MW of electricity from 60 or 75 wind turbines, enough to power 1.2 million Irish homes, nearly half of all Irish dwellings. When operational, Codling Wind Park will deliver over 26% of Ireland’s 2030 grid connected offshore wind targets. It will also help Ireland achieve its target of generating 80% of its electricity from renewable energy by the same year.
The project is a 50/50 joint venture between Fred. Olsen Seawind and EDF Renewables. Both companies are leading developers, owners and operators of renewable energy assets, with many years of global experience in the renewable energy and offshore wind sector.
