Wind energy has the potential to power the country.

Wind energy-related leases, investments, and job creation are underway off American shores. Ports are the manufacturing and marshalling space for wind turbines and related equipment. Wind energy has the potential to not only power large swaths of our country but also to make power-to-gas fuels for decarbonizing ship transportation.

Continue funding for offshore wind marshaling infrastructure.

Support current and future wind energy job creation through initiatives such as AAPA’s ACCELerate Program.
