Can wind power Maryland to its ambitious clean energy goals?

View descriptionShare

On Earth Day, a discussion about the future of wind energy in Maryland.

Last year, Governor Wes Moore announced a goal of 100% renewable clean energy in the state by 2035. He made this announcement from Sparrows Point, at the site of a new factory building parts for offshore wind turbines.

Offshore wind plays a prominent role in Maryland’s renewable energy plans, so today we are taking a closer look at development of offshore wind, and the challenges those projects face. Norwegian wind energy giants Orsted pulled out of Maryland earlier this year, leaving just one company approved to develop offshore wind in the state.

Guests on this show include Aman Ahzar, a reporter for Inside Climate News and  Delegate Lorig Charkoudian.
