There is one week remaining for the public to view the online virtual public exhibition platform for the proposed 900MW Dublin Array offshore wind farm off Ireland’s coast.
Dublin Array developer RWE said that, although much of the information will be available on the website – www.dublinarray.com – after the end of exhibition, it will not be in the current format.
The public will still be able to engage with the company via email and phone, but not on the consultation platform Give Your View, it added.
Dublin Array project director Peter Lefroy said: “Almost 5000 people have visited the website and the virtual exhibition platform since we launched it in early October 2020, but we would like that number to increase. Your views matter to us.
“We will factor your feedback into our final designs and plans before submission of our planning application, ensuring you have a chance to influence the final plan.
“I would also urge residents to go online and sign up for project updates via
our website.
“Responses to our online poll, Give Your View, which has been widely shared via social media to residents of Dublin and Wicklow Counties, have been positive in the main with over 90% of respondents indicating that they believe that Dublin Array is important to helping Ireland to meet its green energy goals.
“The Give Your View consultation is also available on the public exhibition platform for anyone who would like to share their view.”
Dublin Array is a joint venture of RWE and Saorgus Energy, with the former leading the development.
