Offshore Wind California (OWC) will provide industry expertise, and a “dedicated voice” for offshore wind in the west coast US state and said it is committed to leading the promotion of “responsible and sustainable” deployment of offshore wind power in the state's energy system.

The founding member companies of the group are Aker Solutions, Equinor, Magellan Wind, Mainstream Renewable Power, Northland Power, Orsted and Principle Power, along with non-profit Pacific Ocean Energy Trust (POET).

Representatives of the OWC, who gathered at the Pacific Rim Offshore Wind conference, cited advances in floating platform technology and declining costs.
