Offshore Wind

ESA provides the experts you need to bring your offshore wind project to market.

ESA possesses the ideal combination of technical expertise specific to the coastal environment, on- and offshore energy and transmission infrastructure, and necessary environmental reviews and regulatory permitting to successfully implement renewable energy projects.

Our extensive energy project portfolio along the Pacific and Gulf Coasts of the United States demonstrates our clear understanding of the regulated environment as well as the challenges to successfully bringing Pacific and Gulf Coast offshore wind projects to commercial operation.

ESA has assembled a team of senior experts—from former lawyers to federal and state regulatory managers to NEPA/CEQA/SEPA/NHPA experts—that make big energy projects happen. Our understanding of California agency requirements, particularly for the State Lands Commission, Coastal Commission, California Energy Commission, and California Public Utilities Commission, provides offshore wind lease holders with the right team for this important step in decarbonization.

Getting through the regulatory process involves in-depth knowledge of the natural environment, local species, historical and cultural resources, and community concerns—and we are uniquely qualified in this context to assist you in successfully bringing your energy onshore.
