Up to now most wind power has been land-based. However, as demand for renewable energy increases in line with the Government’s target of 15% renewable generation by 2015, it is also becoming increasingly difficult to obtain permission to erect wind turbines onshore. The combination of substantial wind resources and a favorable legislative climate make the UK one of the best markets for offshore wind in the world. B9 Energy Offshore Developments Limited ( ‘B9 Energy Offshore’ ) was established in 2002 to develop, own and operate large scale commercial wind farms off the shores of Northern Ireland.

"B9 has the knowledge and experience needed to operate safely and reliably in such a hostile environment."
