'Accelerating Ireland’s Offshore Energy Programme - Policy Statement on the Framework for Phase Two Offshore Wind’' (March 2023) established the Government’s policy for accelerating offshore wind deployment in Ireland via a plan-led system. The Statement also established the basis for offshore wind auctions under the Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (ORESS 2) in Phase Two.
We are developing terms and conditions for our next offshore wind auction ORESS 2.1, the first such auction under the Phase Two Policy. This auction is planned to commence in the fourth quarter of 2024. On 13 July 2023, we conducted an initial consultation to gather stakeholder feedback on aspects of auction design. Workshops with the offshore wind industry followed on 26 July 2023 and 15 January 2024.
We are now conducting a final consultation on the draft Terms and Conditions of the ORESS 2.1 auction, before publishing the final Terms and Conditions in July 2024.
The closing date for submissions is 5.30pm 7 June 2024.
Submissions should be sent to the following email address: oress@decc.gov.ie with the subject line ‘ORESS 2.1 Draft T&Cs Consultation’.
