Winds of Change Capturing the Power of NJ’s Offshore Wind Energy
A forum presented by the League of Women Voters of Monmouth County
On Sunday, March 20, 2022, at 4 pm, the League of Women Voters of Monmouth County (LWVMC) invites the public to a very important and timely virtual forum entitled, “Winds of Change – Capturing the Power of NJ’s Offshore Wind Energy: What does it mean for us?”
Special guest speakers include Jen Becker, Managing Director, Institute of Development at the NJ Economic Authority; Joseph Brodie, Ph.D., Offshore Wind Research Lead, Center for Ocean Observing Leadership, Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences at Rutgers University; and Michael Gravitz, Director of Legislation and Policy, Marine Conservation Institute.
Offshore wind farms off the coast of New Jersey will be operational beginning in the mid-2020s. Offshore wind represents a big step in the migration from fossil fuels to renewable energy and must be developed in a responsible manner. Join us on the Hot Topics webinar to hear from the experts and get answers to your questions.
