French energy firm to replace Shell in major offshore wind projects
On Wednesday, EDF announced that it will replace Shell as Simply Blue’s development partners, subject to approval by Competition and Consumer Protection Commission.
“Emerald and Western Star will complement our flagship, fixed-bottom foundation, Codling Wind Park development off the east coast of Ireland, diversifying our offshore portfolio in Ireland and strengthening our position as a key player in the Irish and UK offshore markets,” said Matthieu Hue, chief executive of EDF’s Irish and UK arm.
Apart from its offshore projects, EDF also acquired Irish company Wexford Solar in 2020, which included eight projects in Ireland with more than 100MW of capacity.
