Surrounded by the ocean, Nova Scotia has a long history of success in maritime and offshore
industries. Offshore wind adds a game-changing opportunity: to leverage the province’s strength
and innovation in the oceans sector to meet the challenge and opportunity presented by a climate
target of net zero emissions by 2050. Our offshore wind speeds are world-class, rivalling even those
of the North Sea, where the global offshore wind sector began. Creating offshore wind farms in the
waters surrounding Nova Scotia will add a new, local source of renewable electricity, enable greater
decarbonization of the electricity grid, and grow the province’s green hydrogen industry.
Module 2 of Nova Scotia’s Offshore Wind Roadmap focuses on Supply Chain and Infrastructure development.
