Our location in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia proves beneficial for connectivity to the renewable energy market because Virginia has emerged as a leading U.S. state in renewable energy development because of a unique combination of geography, policy, workforce strength, and infrastructure investment.
Virginia also sits along one of the most promising offshore wind corridors in the U.S. The shallow waters of the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf and consistent wind resources create ideal conditions for large-scale wind development.
The state is home to the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, one of the largest offshore wind projects currently under development in North America. When completed, the project will generate enough electricity to power hundreds of thousands of homes and help establish a domestic offshore wind supply chain.
Virginia’s universities and research institutions are helping develop the next generation of renewable energy technology and workforce talent.
Institutions such as Old Dominion University, Virginia Tech, and William & Mary support research in offshore wind engineering, coastal resilience, energy systems, and environmental science.
Workforce training programs are also expanding to prepare technicians, engineers, and project managers for clean energy careers.
