Mayflower Wind We are excited to announce our recent partnership with Mayflower Wind. Mayflower Wind and the Friends of Nobska Light share a vision for a thriving and growing economy that cherishes Falmouth’s deep maritime heritage. We look forward to collaborating with them throughout the next year. “Mayflower Wind is proud to partner with the Friends of Nobska Light in its campaign to restore, preserve, and enhance Nobska as a shining beacon,” said Christopher Hardy, External Outreach and Communications Manager, Mayflower Wind. “The co-existence of new offshore wind energy infrastructure must be backed by a strong commitment to safety and stewardship, as exemplified by the keepers of Nobska over nearly two hundred years.” Mayflower Wind is developing a federal offshore lease area, located over 30 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard and 20 miles south of Nantucket, that has the potential to generate over 2,000 megawatts (MW) of low-cost clean energy, or enough to power nearly 800,000 homes. They expect to deliver clean energy from the project by the mid-2020s. To learn more, please visit their website: mayflowerwind.com/falmouth.
