Metadata: 2017, DP Marine Energy Ireland Ltd (DPME), Fair Head Tidal Energy Park, Environmental Statement
Abstract:
This Environmental Statement (ES) has been prepared by DP Marine Energy Ireland Ltd (DPME), on behalf of Fair Head Tidal Energy Park Ltd (FHTEP) which is a special purpose vehicle formed by partners DPME and Bluepower NV. The ES is submitted in support of an application for consent for the 100 MW FHTEP Project a proposed tidal energy development, covering an area of approximately 4.2km2, less than 1km off the North Antrim Coast in Northern Ireland (the “Project”). The scope of the application is all the offshore components up to the mean high water springs including the tidal turbines with their support structures and foundations, electrical hubs and all cabling works. Excluded from the application are all onshore works above mean high water springs including onshore cabling works, new substation and connection into the existing Northern Ireland electricity network. These will be subject to a separate application.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This Environmental Statement (ES) has been prepared by DP Marine Energy Ireland Ltd (DPME), on behalf of Fair Head Tidal Energy Park Ltd (FHTEP) which is a special purpose vehicle formed by partners DPME and Bluepower NV. The ES is submitted in support of an application for consent for the 100 MW FHTEP Project a proposed tidal energy development, covering an area of approximately 4.2km2, less than 1km off the North Antrim Coast in Northern Ireland (the “Project”). The main focus of the EIA is to assess the potentially significant impacts of the Project on the environment. This requires input from a number of specialists with expertise in each of the environmental disciplines covered as part of the EIA in order to develop a detailed understanding of the baseline environment, establish the importance and sensitivity of that environment and evaluate the significance of any potential impacts. Cumulative impacts are considered throughout the EIA process and have been considered for all phases of the Project. Consultation with DAERA has confirmed a list of other projects which, together with this Project, may result in potential cumulative impacts. |
