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 coast of Humboldt County, Calif.
The proposed project is a 100-megawatt to150-megawatt floating offshore wind farm planned to be located more than 20 miles off the coast of Eureka. The project will pave the way for other offshore wind energy projects off the West Coast.
