This is the fifth and final episode recorded at last week’s 2017 International Offshore Wind Partnering Forum, or IPF, in Annapolis, Maryland.

This session is called “BOEM’s Path Forward.” It builds on the previous day’s remarks from Dr. Walter Cruickshank, Acting Director of the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, or BOEM. You can hear those remarks in episode 8 of More Power To You.

This episode gets into a lot more detail about BOEM’s activities and its approach for supporting the anticipated growth in offshore wind in the near future.  The session is moderated by Ross Tyler, Strategy and Development Advisor for the Business Network for Offshore Wind. The panelists are three senior BOEM leaders:

• Jim Bennett is BOEM’s Renewable Energy Program Manager and also supervises BOEM’s offshore wind leasing activity in the Atlantic
• Joan Barminski is BOEM’s Regional Director for the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)
• Mike Celata is BOEM’s Regional Director for the Gulf of Mexico
