The construction of the Ormonde Offshore Wind Farm is well and truly underway. The pre-piling vessel Buzzard is currently working on the eighteenth pre-piling location. Simultaneously the environmental survey vessel Windcat 22 is conducting marine mammal observations.

When Jacket foundations are installed on top of the pre-piles, navigation lights will be operating during and after construction to ensure the safety of life at sea.
