#KittyHawkWind had a blast celebrating the environment, clean energy, and sustainable practices this month at @VBParksRec’s #EarthDay event at Mount Trashmore. Together, we can build a clean energy future with lasting positive social & economic impacts for the next generations.
The 2020 Virginia Clean Economy Act requires 5.2GW of offshore wind by 2034. Today VA is set to meet half this goal. Celebrate #EarthDay by supporting the 3.5GW #KittyHawkWind projects that can fulfill this OSW goal & power 1 million+ homes & businesses: kittyhawkoffshore.com/take-action
Thanks to those who attended our productive fisheries workshops in #VirginiaBeach and the #OBX this month for the ongoing development of a comprehensive fisheries monitoring plan. Fishers provide invaluable data, insight & experience throughout the development of #KittyHawkWind.
Virginia Beach & Hampton Roads made timely investments to build on the region's assets and become early #offshorewind leaders. Read more in the @virginianpilot on how #KittyHawkWind multiplies this return on investment for longevity of this new industry: hubs.ly/Q02tg6Xf0
#KittyHawkWind was pleased to attend the recent Marine Energy Stakeholder Workshop at the Coastal Studies Institute. While marine energy differs from OSW, it was great to discuss the diversity of renewables compatible with the ocean environment needed to achieve our energy goals.
Our team had a great day at @Avangrid's Amazon Wind Farm in Pasquotank & Perquimans counties, NC that supports Amazon's data centers. We were joined by project directors from Avangrid’s onshore wind farms along the east coast to share insights and updates on #KittyHawkWind.
Great work by all at the @KidWind_Project North Carolina Renewable Energy Challenge last weekend at the Coastal Studies Institute in Wanchese. #KittyHawkWind’s Lela Schlenker was 'blown away' by impressive turbine designs as a 4-8th grade competition judge. Sponsored by @Avangrid
Congrats to all teams in the Eastern Virginia @KidWind_Project Challenge this month in #VirginiaBeach. #KittyHawkWind was proud to provide insight into OSW and serve on the panel of judges evaluating students' innovative wind turbine models competing to generate the most power.
“If you look at Virginia’s maritime assets and its business-friendly climate, it’s ready to be the mid-Atlantic cluster, but it needs more than one project to do it,”-Ken Kimmell, Avangrid. Read more on #KittyHawkWind's transformational economic impact: hubs.ly/Q02pHfD90

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! We salute the dedicated women leading @Avangrid’s #KittyHawkWind as they trailblaze STEM careers furthering a project that not only offers a groundbreaking climate solution, but also builds and sustains a hub for #offshorewind in the mid-Atlantic.
NEW Chmura Analytics study finds #KittyHawkWind will catalyze $1.2 Billion of economic impact in Virginia Beach over forty years with $275 million in cumulative tax revenue for the City. See how the rest of Hampton Roads/VA will benefit: hubs.ly/Q02nzLJT0
Great to hear how fishing & science communities are partnering to continuously improve understanding of the ocean environment at the Northeast Cooperative Research Summit. We're hopeful these insights can play a role in the #KittyHawkWind fisheries monitoring plan development.
This month our fisheries team provided an update on #KittyHawkWind to the Mid-Atlantic Fisheries Management Council in Arlington, VA. We enjoyed discussing the project, fisheries outreach efforts, and the multiple channels & resources used to communicate effectively with fishers.
This month Ashley McLeod of @Avangrid visited with interested engineer academy students with NCTOWERS, discussing offshore wind and the #cleanenergy career opportunities the industry brings to the Mid-Atlantic. #KittyHawkWind
Thank you to Eileen Wool with the @vasierraclub for letting us join you to share #KittyHawkWind's 'How Offshore Wind Works' coloring books at the Winter Wildlife Festival held at Princess Anne Rec Center last week in #VirginiaBeach.
Rebecca Marino & Ashley McLeod of @Avangrid were pleased to attend @CCE_VA’s annual Clean Energy Awards Reception honoring the @PortofVirginia & VA Dept. of Energy Director Glenn Davis for their efforts to create a cleaner energy future in #Virginia. #KittyHawkWind
Meet #KittyHawkWind’s new team member Chris Hardy. He brings extensive experience working on complex renewable energy projects across North America to Kitty Hawk Wind, which will deliver a triple win for our climate, communities, and workforce.
