FHMNA: Mayflower Wind Virtual Open House May 18, 2021 6:30-7:30

Invitation from Mayflower Wind:

Mayflower Wind is launching an open house series, The Future of Clean Energy is Here, and this will be the first event. This event is open to the public and we encourage all Falmouth residents to attend.

Our first event will be held virtually/online on Tuesday, May 18th from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. EST. We will present the latest news on the efforts to bring clean energy to Massachusetts via the Mayflower Wind project which has the potential to generate over 1,600 megawatts of low-cost clean energy, or enough to power over half a million homes.

The Future of Clean Energy is Here
Date: Tuesday, May 18: 6:30 – 7:30 PM

Speakers: Mayflower Wind’s Seth Kaplan, Director of External Affairs; Christopher Hardy, External Outreach Manager; Kelsey Perry, Community Laison Officer; and Joel Southall, Fisheries Laison Officer will present the latest news and updates on the project.

Among the items to be discussed:
• The need and opportunity for offshore wind to fulfill Massachusetts’ net-zero carbon emissions goals
• Plans for making Massachusetts on offshore wind hub through investments in ports and supporting infrastructure; workforce development; innovative technologies; and applied research
