  • Feasibility Assessment for an Offshore Wind Marshalling Port in the Delaware Bay
    Feasibility Assessment for an Offshore Wind Marshalling Port in the Delaware Bay June 2020 Prepared by: Emma House, Zach Roy, Sarra Sundstrom, Emily Tulsky Office of Economic Innovation and Partnerships (OEIP) Spin-In Team University of Delaware Supervised by: Willett Kempton and Sara Parkison ABOUT THIS PROJECT This project was commissioned and funded as part of the Spin-In program through the University of Delaware. The project was led by Dr. Willett Kempton, who knew of the coming need for offshore wind ports, and thought analysis of specific sites would help industry and investors to evaluate options on the eastern seaboard. The sector is fast growing, with states signing power purchase contracts for offshore wind power warranting investment in infrastructure to support that construction. This report is a feasibility analysis of two sites for an offshore wind marshalling port in the US Northeast. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This assessment was made all the more accurate thanks to the many individuals who were consulted or otherwise contributed to the analyses for this report. Thank you to Jesper Bank of Port of Esbjerg, Tim Kelly from the Army Corps of Engineers, Laura Mensch from the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, Dr. John Madsen of UD, Eric Casey and Gene Bailey from Gulftainer, for their advisement, and to many others who contributed information and advice. Additional thanks to Emily Tino, Renee Hetrick, Christina Clark, Dr. Helen Bowers, Andrew Ames, and Cheryl Honaker for their participation earlier in the project. Thanks for financial and logistical support to the Spin-in program at UD Office of Economic Development and Partnerships, especially to Amalea Rassias, and the OEIP team.

  • Board of Trustees Town of Limon, Colorado July 23, 2014
    APPLICATION FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A FOREIGN-TRADE ZONE FOR TOWN OF LIMON, COLORADO Submitted By: Board of Trustees Town of Limon, Colorado July 23, 2014 Grantee Structure and Legal Authority 2. Legal Authority for Application Please see Collective Attachment I, which is comprised of A--copy of the State’s enabling legislation; B—charter or organization papers showing the powers granted to Boards of Trustees and sections that are pertinent to FTZs; and C—certified copy of the Board of Trustees Resolution 3. Discuss the nature of the grantee organization (public or private; non-profit or for-profit). The proposed Grantee is a municipal corporation that has the legal status of a “town” under the laws of Title 31 of the Revised Statutes of the State of Colorado. This governmental entity is a body politic. The Grantee is governed by a mayor and a six member Board of Trustees (the mayor and each Trustee are elected for four year terms) with elections being held every two years by the qualified voters of the Town of Limon. 4. Summarize what you foresee as the operating structure of the zone and discuss the financing plan (as applicable). A summary of the operating structure of the zone and financing plan is: Zone status is being sought under an Alternative Site Framework (ASF) format for some 2,000 acres to be activated in the aggregate. As indicated above, this initial application has identified two sites totaling approximately +- 421.46 acres. The proposed Grantee believes that the flexibility offered by ASF is consistent with the flexibility which it intends to pursue in its development efforts.

  • OFFSHORE WIND TRANSMISSION WHITE PAPER Authored By: Brandon W
    Credit: MHI Vestas Offshore Wind THE BUSINESS NETWORK FOR OFFSHORE WIND OFFSHORE WIND TRANSMISSION WHITE PAPER Authored by: Brandon W. Burke (Business Network for Offshore Wind) Michael Goggin and Rob Gramlich (Grid Strategies LLC) October 2020 Credit: MHI Vestas Offshore Wind Foreword The Business Network for Offshore Wind (Network) is the only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organiza- tion exclusively devoted to developing the U.S. offshore wind industry and supply chain. As a result, the Network is uniquely positioned to speak with one leading voice for the U.S. offshore wind business community. A key objective of many state-level OSW programs, and a central tenet of the Network’s mis- sion, is to attract investment in U.S.-based OSW manufacturing facilities and related services. To realize this opportunity, investors and OSW developers must see a steady, predictable, and sustainable pipeline of OSW projects taking shape in the U.S. When the capacity of the existing onshore electricity grid is reached, and low-cost points of interconnection have been utilized, these grid/interconnection constraints could arrest the future growth of the U.S. OSW project pipeline. The objective of this white paper is to outline grid and transmission recommendations to in- form grid operators and U.S. policymakers in the many local, state, and federal regulatory bod- ies that possess some degree of regulatory responsibility for U.S. offshore wind development and electric transmission. A comprehensive document of this kind has not previously been produced, and it is incumbent upon the U.S. OSW industry to provide input and fill the gap.
