New England States Collaborate to Boost Offshore Wind Industry
TL;DR
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut have agreed to jointly procure offshore wind power in an effort to counter the challenges facing the US offshore wind industry, including rising costs and canceled contracts. The three states will seek multi-state offshore wind proposals for up to 6,000 megawatts of power, with any two or three states able to select a multi-state proposal and split the power from a single project. This collaboration aims to support the decarbonization of the power sector and boost domestic manufacturing.
