Southeastern Wind Coalition: Offshore wind matters to all Virginians

Virginia could have saved around $10 million in one day by relying on domestic offshore wind energy during Winter Storm Elliott in 2022 instead of expensive natural gas imports. This highlights the potential of offshore wind to provide a reliable, cost-effective energy source that benefits not just the environment but also the economy. The Southeastern Wind Coalition emphasizes that transitioning to offshore wind can significantly reduce energy costs and reliance on imported fuels, making it a crucial consideration for the state's energy future.
