The Redwood Coast Energy Authority (RCEA) has selected a consortium of companies comprised of Principle Power, EDPR Offshore North America, Aker Solutions, H. T. Harvey & Associates, and Herrera Environmental Consultants to enter into a public-private partnership to pursue the development of an offshore wind energy project off the Northern California coast.
The proposed project is a 100-150WM floating offshore wind farm planned to be located more than 20 miles off the coast of Eureka. RCEA and the selected consortium will be negotiating and finalising a partnership agreement in the coming weeks, working toward the goal of submitting a lease application later this spring.
