Virtual: New York Offshore Wind Supplier and Workforce Forum (Nov 3 & 5)

November 5, 2021: 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join us virtually on November 3 and November 5 for New York’s Offshore Wind Supplier and Workforce Forum. New York State, with five offshore wind projects and more than 4,300 megawatts in active development, is leading the nation to deliver 9 gigawatts of offshore wind energy by 2035.

With State and Federal goals in alignment, new leases expected in the New York Bight, and project review processes moving forward at a solid pace, the time to unlock critical supply chain investments is now and it’s clear that New York is the nation’s undisputed hub for this industry.

This year’s forum will focus on capacity building for the industry at large. Learn more about critical investments in New York ports, New York’s comprehensive incentive framework, progress on local manufacturing facilities, commitments to building equity, as well as workforce development programs in this exciting new industry.
