DNV GL launches renewables certification operations in U.S.
OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA - DNV GL has established a renewables certification office in the United States to meet the growing demands for certification services for the nascent offshore wind industry.
The company selected Medford, Mass. office as base for its U.S. Renewables Certification group.
Expanded presence is in response to rapid growth of offshore wind project development, especially in the Northeast, the press release said.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), there is the potential to install 22,000 MW of offshore wind projects in the U.S. by 2030. Much of this activity is taking place in the Northeast, with Massachusetts and New York setting aggressive targets and leading the way in opening up the market for offshore wind.
