'I have to be seen to be objective' - Pat Kenny vows to stay neutral on contentious wind-farm project off south Dublin coast
Briefly

The Dublin Array Offshore Wind Farm aims to construct up to 50 wind turbines off the coast, which has caused concern among residents and environmental groups. The turbines could tower at 309.6 meters, equal to the Eiffel Tower's height. Public figures, including presenter Kenny, emphasize the importance of clean energy while acknowledging local concerns. The project promises to generate 824 megawatts of renewable energy—enough for 770,000 homes—and create over 800 jobs, yet it faces scrutiny regarding its ecological and historical implications. A decision is anticipated by September.
"The project will play a key role in helping Ireland meet its climate action and energy security targets," the developers added.
"I understand the need for clean energy and to accelerate the Green transition," Mr Kenny said.
