Technological advancement, financial incentives, and policy concerns have driven a global expansion in the development of renewable energy resources. Recent concerns over energy supply and pricing have led some to look increasingly to federal lands as a potential energy source. Wind energy, in particular, is now often cited as the fastest-growing commercial energy source in the world. Currently, all U.S. wind energy facilities are based on land. However, multiple offshore projects have been proposed and are at various stages of the federal permitting process. This book discusses various energy projects in federal jurisdictions including wind energy and offshore oil and gas development.
