Your voice is needed to advance American offshore wind power and begin a clean energy chapter that will reduce pollution, protect wildlife, and create jobs all along the coast.

Our goal is to unlock the transformative potential of responsibly developed offshore wind power.

To achieve the clean energy goals needed for a healthy climate, we must harness the abundant offshore wind resource off U.S. shores. We believe that offshore wind power can be developed responsibly, in a manner that protects marine and coastal wildlife every step of the way. That is why we work with a broad coalition of partners to ensure this industry fuels a new energy chapter, in which communities and wildlife can thrive.
