Energy Department Announces New Projects for Offshore Wind Energy Technology Demonstration and Resource Characterization

EERE News December 17, 2020 Energy Department Announces New Projects for Offshore Wind Energy Technology Demonstration and Resource Characterization Today, the U.S. Department of Energy announced $21 million in funding for three projects supporting offshore wind energy technology demonstration and resource characterization. These projects will support offshore wind development by demonstrating innovative technologies not previously commercially used in the United States for offshore wind, and by improving the ability to forecast energy production. "Demonstrating innovative technologies not yet deployed at commercial scale will lower the cost of energy and lend confidence to future investment decisions," said Daniel R Simmons, Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. "Improving the ability to accurately forecast wind power with enhanced weather models and demonstrating innovative energy production technologies can help reduce the cost of offshore wind."
