This is such an exciting milestone for the US offshore wind industry! To see American manufacturers, engineers and skilled workers coming together to build the components that will power this clean energy transition is very impressive. The fact that the supply chain now spans 39 states and is backed by $24 billion in investment shows not only the potential of offshore wind, but also its ability to create opportunities for businesses, workers and communities across the United States. We look forward to seeing and being a part of some projects as they develop and continue to shape the renewable energy landscape! Well done EEW AOS!
For the first time in the U.S., American manufacturers are building components for the offshore wind industry. Subsea high-voltage cables, steel monopiles, and more are being ordered, built, and delivered to offshore wind projects now being constructed off the East Coast. Behind each new project is a network of steel suppliers, fabricators, manufacturers, engineers, welders, carpenters, and many others. Today, the U.S. offshore wind supply chain spans 39 states — from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico — and is backed by over $24 billion in investments. In this video, Oceantic Network takes a look inside just a handful of the companies capitalizing on the new opportunities offshore wind presents by investing in their facilities, workforce, communities, and future generations.
