Led by the Green Party and Minister Ossian Smyth, the forum will feature a panel of experts in the law, engineering, energy and the ecology discussing the costs and benefits of Wind Energy Turbines in the Irish Sea, their impact on the environment and what, if any, viable alternatives there are or will be in the future.
