The Biden Administrationâs bold, unified approach to kickstarting U.S. offshore wind deployment has created a consistent advancement of projects through the federal permitting process. Guest Matt Palmer, President of Wood Thilsted USA, a veteran of the U.S. offshore wind industry, has been involved since the days of Nantucket Sound. Matt and host Brandon Burke talk about how these actions can create regulatory certainty and enhance investor confidence, all of which will be necessary to meet the 30 GW by 2030 national offshore wind deployment target.

The United Brotherhood of Carpentersâ David Borrus weighs in on the intensifying workforce demands of the U.S. offshore wind industry and the key role organized labor can play to meet these growing needs. New projects over the coming years will demand more workers â requiring both older generation knowledge and skills as well as an influx of new workers. Host Brandon Burke and David discuss insights on job creation associated with the Vineyard Wind project, entering construction in fall 2021. They also delve into how the U.S. offshore wind industry is driving new career opportunities for more diverse workforce.

The U.S. is poised to emerge as a leader in the floating offshore wind space. In late May, the Biden Administration continued its efforts to jumpstart the U.S. offshore wind industry by advancing offshore wind areas off of Northern and Central California. Off the West Coast, and in several other regions around the U.S., significant water depths will require deployment of floating offshore wind turbines. Siemens Gamesaâs Abby Watson, Mainstream Renewable Powerâs Paula Major, and Principle Powerâs Amisha Patel â three influential women in floating offshore wind â join host Brandon Burke to discuss this massive opportunity for U.S. clean energy leadership and innovation. Theyâll address permitting floating offshore wind platforms, intersections with hydrogen and offshore oil and gas, export opportunities, and the factors necessary to long-term success in this cutting-edge clean energy industry.

California, the worldâs fifth largest economy, has some of the best offshore wind resources in U.S. waters. The stateâs ambitious climate legislation, SB-100, calls for 100 percent clean, carbon-free electricity by 2045. To-date, solar has driven significant changes in Californiaâs energy mix but on its own cannot ensure the stateâs clean energy goals. Right now there is an incredible opportunity for floating offshore wind to contribute to Californiaâs clean energy mix. California State Assemblymember David Chiu joins host Brandon Burke to discuss California's AB-525 offshore wind legislation and the opportunities it will provide the energy-hungry state.
