"I applaud the committee for including extending the 30 percent ITC and providing benefits to the U.S. offshore wind sector. This is a critical time for the U.S. offshore wind industry with over 8000 MW of offshore wind currently under development. The ITC is a key incentive that will support development of these projects and build out a $1 trillion industry over the next twenty years," said Liz Burdock, CEO & President of the Business Network for Offshore Wind.
"As we await the go-ahead from federal regulators, Congress now has an opportunity to support this proven, utility-scale clean energy technology that effectively combats climate change. It's imperative that an extension of the ITC which includes offshore remains a priority in their end-of-year negotiations in order to support the thousands of domestic supply chain companies ready to work in the growing U.S. offshore wind sector."
