New NWF report on Atlantic offshore wind power

By WPED Contributor | July 9, 2014

Offshore wind

The Atlantic Ocean is one of the best attainable renewable energy resources in the United States with the potential to create local jobs while reducing global warming pollution.

As the federal government continues to designate offshore wind leasing areas, how much energy potential is currently available for the Atlantic Coast? How much progress has been made toward getting wind turbines into the water? How can offshore wind power protect ratepayers from energy market price spikes? What actions do state leaders need to take to finally launch this transformative new clean energy source for America?

A teleconference on Thursday, July 10 at 10 a.m. ET will unveil a new report from the National Wildlife Federation taking a fresh, honest look at how far offshore wind has come, with detailed reports on each Atlantic Coast state and a call to action to state leaders to seize the opportunity before them and bring a massive clean energy source online.

WHAT:          Teleconference Releasing NWF’s Catching the Wind report
WHEN:          Thursday, July 10, 10am ET
