“We are very proud to receive this contract and work closely with our client on strategic assignments that will support Ireland not only become greener in terms of energy resources but also help utilizing these resources in a smart way across the sector. The client has a great respect for the Scandinavian renewable energy field – especially on wind, solar, carbon storage, and waste-to-energy. Therefore, it is of great interest to bring the Nordic experience into play and we are happy to share the knowledge we’ve gained from previous projects,” said Charlotte Seidenberg, project manager, Energy Strategy and Planning.
