Buttevant-based renewables specialist wins approval for Alberta development

Based in Buttevant, Co Cork, DP Energy designs and builds wind- and solar-powered electricity plants in Ireland, Britain, Australia and Canada.

The company has not said how much the development will cost, but Alberta’s state government values the investment at $600 million Canadian dollars .DP Energy is seeking a potential buyer to operate the solar plant once it is finished. Mr Cronin noted that Saamis is on an industrial landfill site that “cannot be used for anything else”.

It is also joining forces with ESB and French utility ÉDF, to bid for capacity in Celtic Round 5, in which the British government will allocate space off the Welsh coast for offshore developments.
