Offshore Wind Community Engagement: Recommendations for State Agencies

Offshore wind offers an enormous opportunity to build renewable, reliable, and domestic electricity, but states and developers must address its effects on local communities, especially communities already burdened by climate change and fossil fuel emissions.

A report authored by Clean Energy States Alliance (CESA) and Equnival Partners, “Strengthening Offshore Wind Community Engagement: Recommendations for State Agencies,” includes concrete steps that state agencies can take to meaningfully engage with communities as states plan for offshore wind projects.

In this CESA webinar, CESA Project Director Sam Schacht and Equnival Partners Principal Kevin Bryan will present the report’s recommendations and discuss them alongside members of CESA’s Offshore Wind and Equity Working Group.
