Episode: Offshore Wind Gathers Momentum
Pub date: 2021-07-27
The global offshore wind industry is booming as China and Europe break records for the size and scope of their projects.
The US wind industry is a different story. America only has one small commercial project in operation. But states and the federal government are working hard to change that. New York wants to build 9 gigawatts of wind projects off its coast by 2035. And it has awarded contracts to a major developer, Equinor, to build a third of that capacity. Host Bill Loveless speaks with Richard Kauffman, Chairman of the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) about the future of this energy source. Richard is also an Adjunct Senior Research Scholar at the Center On Global Energy Policy and Chair at Generate Capital. He lays out the legislatives and economic traps as well as the points of promise when it comes to American Offshore Wind.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from Columbia University, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.
