To strengthen our national security and our domestic energy supply, look no further than offshore wind. As Commander Kirk Lippold, USN (Ret) writes, “offshore wind is giving a critical boost to American shipbuilding while advancing our energy security objectives along with it.”.
"Offshore wind supports America’s shipbuilding and energy needs alike.". Commander Kirk Lippold highlights how projects like ECO Liberty & Charybdis are boosting U.S. shipyards, creating jobs, and strengthening energy security. 🇺🇸. Read his op-ed:

Virginia’s newest offshore wind project is proof: clean energy = energy independence. By 2026, it will be powering over 600,000 homes with reliable, homegrown electricity. More projects like this mean stable prices, fewer blackouts, and less dependence on foreign energy.
The U.S.’s largest commercial offshore wind project, right here in Virginia Beach, is expected to start sending electrons to the grid in 2026! At max capacity, the project will be able to generate 2.6GW of carbon-free energy for the American grid. #CVOW #OffshoreWind.

All Americans want good jobs and count on reliable, secure energy sources powering our homes. Offshore wind is already delivering for New York, and can create more and meet specific needs in places like Virginia, Louisiana, and New England.
Great to see @RepGarbarino touring Roman Stone Construction Company in #BayShore! Their work on offshore wind manufacturing is exactly the kind of innovation we need to strengthen infrastructure and safeguard New York’s coastlines. #OffshoreWind #LIJOBS

Peak demand for U.S. electricity set two new record highs in July as hot summer days and developing energy-intensive industries push demand to new heights. Offshore wind can add more domestic energy to our already strained grid, preventing blackouts so Americans have access to

Offshore wind isn’t just clean energy; it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create thousands of good, high-paying LOCAL jobs. Let’s build a stronger workforce AND a greener future.
The #CVOW project alone is supporting more than 800 Virginia jobs during construction. Once completed, ongoing operation and maintenance will support more than 1,000 local jobs. #OffshoreWindJobs.

Offshore wind energy can power millions of American homes and businesses — but only if it’s connected to the grid. Vessels like the Monna Lisa are essential to bringing reliable energy onto the grid, which helps protect ratepayers from blackouts and price shocks during extreme.
ANOTHER CVOW MILESTONE: @PrysmianNA’s cable-laying vessel, Monna Lisa, began installing critical submarine cables to carry energy onshore. #osw #cvow.
