US Sits On Top of Immense Offshore Wind Energy
President Biden is proposing a big build-out of offshore wind power.

The idea is to create jobs, expand U.S. steel and wind turbine production, and eventually put America on course for 100 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2050.
This step is long overdue — the U.S. is far behind many European countries and China in offshore wind capacity. In fact, if anything Biden’s plan is not nearly aggressive enough. There is simply no way around the need for a truly massive expansion of offshore wind power.
