With the accelerated growth of offshore wind in the United States, the University of Rhode Island has organized the 2021 Offshore Renewable Energy: Learning As We Go Webinar and Podcast Series to share our learning of various aspects of the offshore wind energy (OWE) industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

While our 2020 webinar series<\/a> focused on answering questions about the benthic (seafloor) environment and offshore wind, this segment of the series will focus on facilitating discussions based upon the following questions: How can we use port infrastructure investment as an opportunity to develop green ports? What skills and networks should students foster to be best prepared to work in the offshore wind development industry? What is the role of research platforms in advancing offshore renewable energy? and What strategies and techniques can be applied to use the ocean more efficiently?<\/span><\/p>\n
