NYPA launches Great Lakes offshore wind project business registry

NYPA launches Great Lakes offshore wind project (GLOW) directory

As the next step in building New York's offshore wind industry. NYPA has developed an online, business-to-business registry for companies interested in becoming involved in this project. The registry is now available for list company information.

NYPA's RFP to develop an offshore wind farm in the Great Lakes is an opportunity for New York State manufacturers and service providers, especially in Upstate New York, to take part.  In addition, NYPA is interested in attracting new and innovative companies to New York for offshore wind development.

NYPA is inviting the following sectors to register for the directory:
  • Manufacturers and suppliers of a wide range of mechanical and electrical components including: generators, hydraulics, sensors, hardware, drives, power distribution, composites, cabling, big steel, castings, forgings, bearings and gearboxes.
  • Construction equipment and suppliers, including: cranes, concrete and rear.
  • Transportation companies supporting large-scale items over land, rail and sea.
