Off Shore Wind is Coming to the Gulf of Maine
Current Issues and Opportunities Facing the Region and Its Maritime Community
Following dinner, the Propeller Club will offer a presentation by Mark Sanborn, Assistant Commissioner of New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services. He leads New Hampshire’s efforts to participate in the siting and development of the substantial OSW resources in federal regulated waters of the Gulf of Maine. He will update us on the US Bureau of Offshore Energy Management’s (BOEM) leasing process and opportunities for stakeholders to participate. He will also address New Hampshire’s efforts to create and support workforce development, supply chain opportunities associated with the floating turbine technology, energy transmission (both offshore and onshore connection to the power grid), and potential infrastructure and related projects.
There will be time set aside for Q & A with Assistant Commissioner Sanborn and other participants in NH’s Offshore Wind and Port Development Commission.
