The data will support Ireland’s offshore renewable energy spatial planning, including Designated Maritime Area Plans, while balancing environmental protection and other uses of the sea. The scope covers Irish marine areas including the Irish Sea, Celtic Sea and Atlantic Ocean, with possible future DMAP areas. The framework is planned for 36 months, may include up to 20 suppliers and has an estimated value of EUR 30 million excluding VAT. Offers are due 5 November 2026. - Status: closing-soon - Country: IE - Buyer: Department of Climate Energy and the Environment - Submission deadline: 2026-11-05T17:00:00+01:00 (instant) - Original notice: https://ted.europa.eu/en/notice/-/detail/661914-2026 - Source checked: 2026-10-14T10:07:18.305725Z ## Source-backed public facts ```json { "id": "4db52529-3283-408d-ae5d-c8f34cd40433", "revision": 1, "modifiedAt": "2026-10-29T16:00:00+00:00", "sourceCheckedAt": "2026-10-14T10:07:18.305725Z", "stale": false, "url": "https://zephior.com/tenders/4db52529-3283-408d-ae5d-c8f34cd40433/legacy-marine-data-and-rights-to-publish-legacy-marine-data-across-ireland-2026", "locale": "en", "title": "Legacy marine data and rights to publish legacy marine data across Ireland 2026", "summary": "The Department of Climate Energy and the Environment is establishing a framework to acquire existing, high-quality and unprocessed marine survey datasets collected by private industry.

In turn, this will provide greater certainty for all maritime users as to where development will be situated. An important step in advancing Phase Two will be the use of forward spatial planning, and specifically the requirement to establish Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Designated Areas that will take place according to legislative provisions for Designated Maritime Area Plans (DMAPs) within the Maritime Area Planning (MAP) Act, 2021. This forward spatial planning will take an ecosystem-based approach, in line with EU and national policy, and will inter alia help to guide future investment and decision-making. The National DMAP will provide a spatial planning policy framework for offshore renewable energy deployment around Ireland’s coastline. The development and implementation of the National DMAP is currently underway. It will aim to designate sufficient maritime area to deliver Ireland’s ambition of having 20 GW of offshore renewable energy by 2040. Commencing with the South Coast DMAP, the State is undertaking comprehensive surveying activities through our partners in the Marine Institute (MI) and Geological Survey Ireland (GSI) or private surveyors as required to facilitate potential future offshore renewable energy development.
