BOEM plans to hold the West Coast's first offshore wind auction Dec. 6, a major milestone in developing the first floating wind platforms in the U.S.

A new finding by the U.S. Bureau of Energy Management means California could see its first offshore wind lease auctions by the end of the year.

The mood was almost euphoric as the CEC adopted the nation’s most ambitious long-term offshore wind goals, targeting up to 5 GW by 2030 and 25 GW by 2045.

The California Energy Commission issued a draft report that could double the state's offshore wind targets for 2045 in response to stakeholder comments.

New global floating offshore wind capacity that is operational, secured or in development has reached 116.2 GW, according to The Renewables Consulting Group.

The draft EIS by BOEM on New Jersey’s first offshore wind project, Ocean Wind 1, drew more than 50 speakers at two hearings this month.

President Biden on Wednesday proclaimed climate change a “clear and present danger” to the U.S., to which he would respond “with urgency and resolve.”

Offshore wind projects on the East Coast could cut revenue in the $30 million surfclam industry by 3% to 15%, a new study says.

BOEM's draft EIS for Ocean Wind 1, New Jersey's first offshore wind project, found the project would have potential major impacts to fishing and tourism.

The California Coastal Commission gave conditional approval to BOEM's plans to conduct offshore wind auctions this fall, a significant regulatory milestone.
