Driving Ireland's Offshore Renewable Energy Future
BnM and Ocean Winds in the Renewable Energy and Offshore Sector
BnM
Renewable energy and environmental services company focused on providing climate solutions and sustainable energy security for Ireland through renewable power, recycling, waste management, and peatland restoration. This semi-state company established in 1946, was created response to a national emergency to develop Ireland’s peatlands, boost midland economies, and secure energy supply. Today, through its Brown-to-Green strategy, the company has evolved to become Ireland’s leading provider of climate solutions.
Ocean Winds
A pure offshore wind player, leading a new era of clean energy by turning the ocean winds into power that light up homes, businesses, and communities. From end-to-end, we make it happen—building wind farms at sea and keeping them running to deliver reliable, green energy every day.
Ocean Winds goes beyond energy to deliver lasting impacts. What makes us unique is the expertise of our people,
the experience gained through our projects, and the vision from our sponsors, EDPR and ENGIE.
