Offshore wind energy will be essential for meeting nation’s climate goals and boosting domestic renewable energy production in coastal areas, but we can’t build a robust offshore wind industry without transmission - moving electricity from where it is generated to where it is needed most. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Grid Deployment Office is utilizing an all-of-government strategy to support development of offshore wind transmission and producing innovative action plans that can lead towards effective design and implementation of offshore wind transmission.
