To bring offshore wind to New Hampshire Governor Sununu must
request a task force from the Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management. The Task Force will...
1. Study the feasibility of offshore wind in New Hampshire
2. Talk to stakeholders
3. Start the leasing process for the area where the wind turbines will go
4. Be staffed partly with NH residents (legislators, PUC, SEC, or other people).
This is the only cost to NH
The coastal wind of NH provides
Capacity to produce ~2600
Megawatts of energy
That could meet 100% of NH
electricity needs!
