The US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) has published two Calls for Information and Nominations to solicit information from the public and determine industry interest in potential commercial wind energy development offshore Oregon and in the Central Atlantic.

This was announced by BOEM Director Amanda Lefton at the International Offshore Wind Partnering (IPF) Forum in Atlantic City on 27 April. Lefton highlighted the Biden-Harris administration’s ambition to deploy 30 GW of offshore wind energy by 2030 and the potential to create tens of thousands of jobs.
