  33. So what does it take to get there? • Need some combination of: • Competitive production costs • Incentives • RPS • Limits on carbon • Price on carbon, pollution, or other externalities

  34. Virginia legislation • 2011: Joint Resolution supporting 3000 MW of offshore wind by 2025 • Aspirational only, no carrots and no sticks • Also roots for a National Offshore Wind Technology Center to be located here • 2010: Virginia Offshore Wind Development Authority • Coordinates data-gathering, supply chain, works with local governments

  35. What is the Sierra Club doing? • We advocate: • a real RPS • including externalities in the IRP process • continuing funding for VCERC • incentives for offshore wind investment and turbine manufacturing • removing the $45 million of coal subsidies
