80% of U.S. electricity demands are located in coastal states, and the total U.S. offshore wind energy potential is more than twice what the entire country currently uses. Nearly 80% of the U.S. offshore wind resource is located in deepwater, which can be cost effectively harnessed using the University of Maine’s VolturnUS.
