The
FuturEnergy Ireland story
In November 2021, Coillte and ESB joined forces to launch their joint venture company FuturEnergy Ireland.
As custodian of 7% of Ireland’s land, Coillte plays a critical role in tackling climate change through the active management of its land and forest resources and the manufacture of sustainable forest products.
Coillte’s portfolio of proposed wind farm projects and its Renewable Energy division transferred to FuturEnergy Ireland in Q4 2021. FuturEnergy Ireland is part of the company’s wider strategic plan and commitment to creating a sustainable future.
ESB, through its Brighter Future strategy, is furthering its investment in and commitment to onshore wind generation in Ireland, one of the main technologies underpinning the clean electricity systems that will power our societies into the future.
