Abstract

This report summarizes the authors' analysis, focusing on the near- (through 2030) and long-term (through 2050) implications of deploying 30 gigawatts of offshore wind energy by 2030. Specifically, the authors assessed impacts on power sector evolution, offshore wind supply chain and infrastructure, and offshore wind workforce needs in the United States. The methods, limitations, and results of each aspect of the analysis are presented in their respective sections.
