“We’ve tripled our portfolio from when Statkraft came into Ireland first”
Kevin O'Donovan was a co-founder of Element Power when the Norwegian state-owned renewable energy giant acquired it three years ago. He is now Statkraft's boss in Ireland and oversees its wind and solar energy business across northern Europe. In a companion interview to Thomas Hubert's exploration of the business, O'Donovan shares his views on the renewable project life cycle, what Ireland needs to do to achieve its decarbonisation targets and the unique funding model he can tap into within the Statkraft group.
