US opens federal waters off California to wind
‘Opening the door to development offshore California will prime the Pacific Coast to be another American offshore wind hub and economic driver and will enhance American wind leadership,’ said National Ocean Industries Association President Erik Milito
The US aims for 30,000 megawatts of offshore wind by 2030, which could spur $12bn in capital investments for projects on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and employ more than 77,000 people
