offshore wind
In our latest advancements in the renewable energy market, within the electrical industry, IBEW Local 223 was privileged to be a part of one of the first large scale Offshore Wind Farms located off the coast of Southeastern Massachusetts, Vineyard Wind I. IBEW Local 223 with many other Local Trades Unions came together ensuring we bring the highest quality of craftsmanship to the offshore industry. This did not only entail the work offshore of building Wind Turbines from the ocean floor up, but also the substations and cable laying landside that will power these Wind Turbines. The project will bring clean and affordable energy to over 400,000 homes and businesses in local communities within Southeastern Massachusetts.
