    Inch Cape Offshore contracted Cadeler in June to install the 72 wind turbines. Installation is due to start in fourth-quarter 2026, using one of Cadeler's newbuild M-class jackup vessels, with the program set to take about 249 days.

    Full operation of the wind farm is expected in 2027.

    Inch Cape Offshore is a joint venture between ESB and Red Rock Renewables.
