Wind - for the Environment
The transition to clean energy is essential to fight the harmful effects of our changing climate and air pollution on local communities and wildlife habitats. A clean, reliable, large-scale resource, offshore wind will be essential to a carbon-free grid.

Wind - for North Carolina
Our state stands to be a leader in offshore wind. We’re working together to bring jobs, manufacturing, and responsibly-sited offshore wind farms to North Carolina. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.
A clean, resilient, independent energy future for North Carolina
North Carolina has set a goal of 2.8-gigawatts of offshore wind development by 2030 and 8-gigawatts by 2040. We are committed to realizing these goals, while ensuring the responsible development of projects and the greatest economic benefit for our state and communities.
