Malin Head Offshore Wind Farm
is a proposed renewable energy development located on the Malin Shelf in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of County Donegal.
At its nearest point, it will be over 32km off the north coast, lying entirely outside Ireland’s 12nm foreshore limit. The project has the potential to deliver enough renewable energy to help power over 850,000 households annually, helping Ireland to meet its binding target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 51% by 2030.
