This year, New Jersey Institute of Technology will proudly introduce the National Science Foundation (NSF) Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers Program (IUCRC) Center for Grid Enhancing Technologies for Offshore Wind Transmission and Integration (GOWIND) in its Planning Phase. This joint effort by NJIT and Rowan University showcases their collaborative mission to advance grid-enhancing technologies, strengthen energy transmission, and train the next generation of power system professionals.

Each year, NYCETC brings together the city’s premier policymakers and practitioners to focus on career pathways, emerging industries, and the vital link between workforce and economic development. The 2025 NYCETC Conference: Advancing Affordability Through Jobs, Wages & Wealth will bring together hundreds of public and private sector leaders—with thousands more online—to champion economic mobility and advance a livable and affordable New York City.

Join Oceantic Network members for breakfast and conversation at their quarterly New York Member Breakfast at energyRe. The event is free to attend, but advance registration is required.

This event will highlight the current needs and priorities of offshore wind workforce education, explain how businesses can benefit from these cross sector partnerships, and outline clear opportunities for future collaboration. Attend to learn how a major infrastructure build out at the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal is being advanced through coordinated work across industry, innovation, and education.

The New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) will host Clean Energy Office Hours, a virtual information session designed for companies interested in New Jersey’s clean energy financing and incentive programs. Participants will hear brief presentations, have the opportunity to ask questions, and connect directly with NJEDA’s Clean Energy Team. The main program will run for approximately 30 minutes, followed by additional time for questions and networking. This session will provide valuable insights for businesses seeking to advance clean energy initiatives in New Jersey.

This networking event brings together professionals working across the offshore wind sector to exchange ideas, expand connections, and foster collaboration in a casual setting. Participants can engage with peers from a range of disciplines including development, policy, engineering, and community engagement while discussing current projects, emerging opportunities, and the broader future of offshore wind. The gathering is designed to strengthen relationships, support knowledge sharing, and contribute to the continued growth of the offshore wind community.
