Leadership in the State of the State
A little over a year ago, U.S. offshore wind (OSW) history
was made—thrice. The first U.S. offshore wind farm began spinning off the coast
of Rhode Island; BOEM completed its most successful offshore wind lease auction
to date, awarding Statoil a wind lease for over $42 million; and, New York
Governor Cuomo announced a 2,400 MW offshore wind goal by 2030 in his State of
the State.
