"The Biden administration on Wednesday identified new areas for potential offshore wind development off the coasts of Oregon and several central Atlantic states, its latest step toward bolstering the nascent U.S. industry.
Offshore wind is a key pillar of President Joe Biden's plan to fight climate change by decarbonizing the U.S. power sector by 2035 and the entire economy by 2050.
Wednesday's announcement by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, part of the Department of Interior, is the first step in designating areas that will be auctioned to companies seeking to build offshore wind farms."
