Maryland is playing a leading role in this industry and is providing resources to prepare its manufacturers for the contract opportunities in this industry While there will be ample offshore wind contract opportunities for our State’s manufacturers, companies will need to be prepared when these opportunities present themselves. The Maryland Energy Administration (MEA) has grant funding available to support new or existing businesses (including minority owned emerging businesses) exploring offshore wind contract opportunities in Maryland by offsetting their capital expenditure investments. Capital expenditures must be utilized to provide goods and services to the growing offshore wind industry in the United States. Grant funds may be used to offset capital expenditures such as: Business expansion including relocation costs, new construction of real property, and renovations to existing real property; and, Purchase and installation of equipment at a new or existing real property(s). The program will include opening remarks from RMI President Mike Galiazzo, brief comments from representatives of Orsted and US Wind, two Maryland-based companies leading the way for Maryland’s role in this industry, and an intro to MEA offshore wind grant funding programs from Sam Beirne and Emma Stoney, MEA Energy Program Managers, Wind & Water Program.
