The Coalition for a proposed New England – Maritimes Offshore Energy Corridor (NEMOEC) is proud to be accepting new members! Today we have officially launched ‘Phase 2’ of our work to support the development of a shared offshore backbone #transmission corridor that directly connects US and Canadian #offshorewind resources. Our vision for transformative #interregional electricity infrastructure is to build a cleaner and more resilient regional grid while minimizing #stakeholder impacts and helping both regions meet their #renewableenergy needs. Phase 2 will take a deep dive into analyzing the economic growth potential resulting from this shared backbone approach. A new white paper will explore the economic impact of the Corridor, seeking to quantify the expected increase in offshore wind deployment and the associated economic benefits. As we continue to grow the tent, we are especially keen to bring in members of the offshore wind #supplychain, who will benefit from building a more robust and sustainable regional marketplace. New members of the #NEMOEC Coalition have the opportunity to build relationships with key stakeholders in the region through our collaborative efforts, shape the the debate around how the New England and Maritimes clean energy economy unfolds, and gain priority participation in webinars, workshops, and media opportunities as we promote the findings of the new whitepaper.

Coalition for a New England - Maritimes Offshore Energy Corridor
Renewable Energy Power Generation
Supporting the deployment of a transmission corridor linking clean energy resources in New England and Atlantic Canada.
About us
The NEMOEC Coalition is a group of seven developers of offshore wind, green hydrogen, and transmission solutions. Our purpose is to promote the New England – Maritimes Offshore Energy Corridor (NEMOEC), a shared offshore transmission corridor that will support the broad decarbonization goals across the region while also serving as an essential reliability asset to the grid on both sides of the border.

We've said it before and we'll say it again: Nova Scotia's offshore wind resource is an essential part of the clean energy future for the entire Can-Am Northeast. Very encouraging to see the province continue to move forward in a strategic way.
Will 'early focus' on #NovaScotia's #offshorewind #supplychain get gears meshing for Canada's frontrunning sector play? Read Canada's National Observer for #exclusive industry views from SBM Offshore's Gerald Sheehan, Novaporte's Albert Barbusci, The Groundwire Group's Abby L. Watson, LeeWay Marine's Jamie Sangster and Marine Renewables Canada's Elisa Obermann, as the province releases module 2 in its sector roadmap.

Melanie Nadeau, P.Eng. ICD.D.'s piece in SaltWire this week takes the #NEMOEC concept and amplifies it, outlining the possibilities for an Atlantic Northeast Innovation Corridor. She points out the many shared assets and opportunities that could be better leveraged across the Atlantic Northeast, including: ⚓ A strong maritime workforce and shipping industry 🌊 A thriving blue economy research sector ⚡ Abundant ocean energy knowledge base 🔬 World-class research institutions and technology innovators She even points to our work as an example that is helping set the stage for cross-border collaboration: "The concept of the proposed New England – Maritimes Offshore Energy Corridor (NEMOEC) is an example of cross-border collaboration that could environmentally and economically benefit residents throughout the Atlantic Northeast." Read her thoughtful proposal here: https://lnkd.in/ed2s3WMX

Dismantling obstacles, bit by bit. This is how we achieve a #netzero future!
"Numerous examples are cited throughout their report, flagging opaque treatment of data by the incumbent utility and uncertainty that Independent Power Producers (IPPs) were getting a fair shake." Sound familiar, Simon Mahan? U.S. utilities don't have a monopoly on obfuscation. Nova Scotia's proposed Independent Energy System Operator is an exciting development for IPPs of all stripes in Nova Scotia, but especially for prospective #offshorewind developers. This market just keeps moving forward, one step at a time. I've said it once, and I'll say it a thousand times: Nova Scotia has the opportunity to produce some of the world's most cost-effective offshore wind. Setting the stage for the essential transmission investments is smart policy - just ask New Jersey!

The 475-mile Viking Link subsea interconnector between the UK and Denmark is officially operational! This project served as inspiration for the #NEMOEC proposal to deliver #offshorewind resources from US and Canadian waters to load centers in both countries. A very welcome proof point that we really are capable of doing big things 💪

Proud moment for the National Grid Interconnectors team as Viking Link just went live 🥳🥳🥳 We now have a UK power grid that is connected to Denmark. A couple of special younger operatives in the photo came for the switch on. Such a fantastic way to finish the year.

Did you know? A New England – Maritimes Offshore Energy Corridor (NEMOEC) 1) Could deliver up to $780m per year in system and greenhouse gas reduction; 2) improves the outlook for offshore wind markets in US and Canada; 3) is scalable, enabling both regions to meet their climate goals; and 4) promotes a standardized approach using HVDC designs to maximizes the corridor's value. We're launching the second phase of our Coalition's work and new members will have the opportunity to shape the public debate on this important topic. Your organization can build relationships with key stakeholders while broadening your engagement and demonstrating your leadership on sustainable, collaborative development of #offshorewind Please reach out to learn more: www.nemoec.com

Excellent report from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Department of the Interior looking at what it will mean to act on transmission. The agencies rightfully say it will take a coordinated effort to bring the East Coast’s offshore wind resources on land and serving local communities. We agree- and we believe working together across the Canadian/American border, we can build an even more reliable and sustainable grid! Link to the full report and fact sheet here: https://lnkd.in/emYFvxBx To join the NEMOEC Coalition and become one of the industry leaders taking a collaborative, stakeholder-first approach to transmission planning, visit us at nemoec.com #OffshoreWind, #GridTransmission, #GridPlanning, #HVDC
We've got our sights set on one of the President’s most ambitious clean energy goals—deploying 30 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2030. In partnership with the U.S. Department of the Interior, we’ve released an action plan for offshore wind transmission development in the U.S. Atlantic region. This is a tremendous opportunity to: 💨 Catalyze offshore wind energy 🔌 Power homes with clean electricity 💲 Create gusts of economic growth through good-paying jobs 🔗 Strengthen the domestic supply chain https://lnkd.in/eNcG8_FZ

Congratulations to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) on this incredible milestone investment in #gridplanning and #gridreliability! We were particularly pleased to see projects that shared many of the same elements we envision working in the New England-Maritimes regions: [ X ] Exploring ways to increase the delivery of renewable energy across state borders and linking their overall proposal to lower consumer costs, as in Increasing Transmission Capacity to Expand Renewable Energy Integration’s approach; [ X ] Using a two-way power flow model, as seen in The Grid of the Future’s proposal; [ X ] Engaging with stakeholders and working across multiple states like the Cooperative Energy Ecosystem model. All of these samples explore how their proposals can benefit disadvantaged or local communities in which they operate.
