Our Priorities: Guiding Offshore Wind Development
Our priorities are centered on ensuring offshore wind is developed responsibly and delivers meaningful benefits for New England. That means advancing projects that strengthen energy reliability, lower costs for households and businesses, and accelerate progress toward climate goals—while protecting public health, coastal ecosystems, and marine wildlife through science-based planning and oversight.
We also prioritize equity and economic opportunity. We advocate for strong labor standards, family-sustaining union jobs, and investments in local supply chains, while elevating the voices of communities most impacted by climate change and energy infrastructure. Through regional collaboration and smart policy, we work to ensure offshore wind supports a fair, resilient, and inclusive clean energy transition.
Regional Partnership: A Collaboration Across New England
Because New England shares a regional electricity grid, interconnected infrastructure, and common environmental and economic challenges, meaningful collaboration is essential to scaling offshore wind effectively. Regional coordination allows states to maximize economic benefits, reduce costs, and accelerate progress toward shared climate goals.
Offshore wind development is strongest when states work together on issues that cross borders—including transmission planning, workforce and supply chain development, port infrastructure, and wildlife and fisheries protection. A regional approach helps ensure offshore wind is developed efficiently, responsibly, and in a way that delivers lasting benefits across the entire region.
“Responsible offshore wind development depends on rigorous environmental safeguards and science-based wildlife protections.”
Our Tools / Solutions
Tools That Turn Policy Into Progress
Our tools and solutions help move offshore wind from planning to impact. We develop and share research, policy guidance, and regional strategies that support responsible development, reduce costs, and strengthen coordination across New England. By grounding our work in data, collaboration, and real-world implementation, we equip decision-makers and stakeholders with the resources needed to deliver affordable, reliable clean energy at scale.
Advancing Offshore Wind Solutions
Policy & Regulatory Alignment
We support coordinated state and federal policies that enable responsible offshore wind development, reduce risk, and deliver long-term benefits for ratepayers and communities.
Data-Driven Planning & Research
We advance science-based decision-making by sharing research, analysis, and best practices that protect ecosystems, strengthen grid reliability, and inform smarter project design.
Regional Collaboration & Implementation
We bring states, labor, industry, and community partners together to align strategies, accelerate deployment, and ensure offshore wind delivers equitable economic and workforce outcomes.
