Please note, the main session of the conference is now fully booked. As a result, there will not be a delegation. However, our local energy advisor for offshore wind in the USA, Andy Geissbuehler, will be onsite and available for NORWEP partners.
Members of Team Norway (Consulate General San Francisco, Innovation Norway and NORWEP) in close cooperation with Offshore Wind California https://www.offshorewindca.org/ invite you to the Pacific Offshore Wind Summit in San Francisco.
Offshore wind is coming to the U.S. West Coast. Federal lease auctions are expected by fall of 2022, with the first round supporting some 4.6 gigawatts (GW) of power – and that’s just off California. West Coast states are getting on track to establish a sustainable floating wind industry that will generate jobs and economic development for decades. California, with its landmark AB 525 legislation, is setting a path towards integrating 10 GW or more of offshore wind in its climate and clean-power strategy. Oregon, Washington, and Hawaii are working to add offshore wind to their clean-power portfolios. These West Coast opportunities hold tremendous promise, but they also require different technologies, supply chains, and construction methods than fixed-bottom projects on the Atlantic Coast.
