Principal Investigator and Senior Post Doctoral Researcher in Energy Finance, Environmental Research Institute, University College Cork

Peter Deeney is a senior post doctoral researcher in University College Cork, and the Principal Investigator of the Wind Value project. The Wind Value project is funded by the Irish Research Council. It aims to produce two decision-support tools, one for wind-farm owners to assist with end-of-life decisions for their wind farms (decommissioning, life extension or repowering), and one for community investors to estimate risk. Peter also works on the XROTOR project examining the use of a novel vertical axis offshore wind turbine, and with colleagues in IEA Wind Task 45 investigating methods to recycle used wind-turbine blades. He is a member of the Re-Wind Network.
