GREENSBORO, North Carolina (theACC.com) – The 2021 Subway Atlantic Coast Conference Championship football game kicks off at 8 p.m. on ABC on Saturday, December 4 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC. The match will feature the winner of the Atlantic division against the winner of the Coastal division.

This is the 12th time in the past 13 years that the game has taken place in prime time. Twelve different teams participated in the game, including a different team from the Coastal Division each year from 2013 to 2019. Last season No.3 Clemson beat No.2 Notre Dame – who played in the ACC in 2020 as a full member of football due to the COVID-19 pandemic – by a score of 34-10 in the most watched ACC championship game of all time.

Bank of America Stadium, home of the NFL Panthers, has been the site of 10 of the last 11 CCA football championship games. In 2018, the ACC and the Charlotte Sports Foundation reached an agreement to keep the game in Charlotte until 2030. Besides the 2020 game, which saw limited attendance due to the pandemic, the championship games of ACC football played at Bank of America Stadium had an average attendance of nearly 70,000 fans.

The winner of the conference championship game has played in the national championship game or made the college football playoffs in each of the previous eight seasons.

Between extensive federal tax credits, state commitments to renewable energy, and the recent approval of the country’s first large-scale facility off Massachusetts, the U.S. offshore wind industry is on the cusp of a construction boom on the Atlantic coast, several experts told S&P Global. “Evolution of Energy” podcast.

With the administration of US President Joe Biden setting the goal of building 30 GW of capacity by 2030, the Vineyard Offshore Wind Project joint venture between Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners K / S and Iberdrola SA’s Avangrid Inc. projects may cope, according to Christy Guthman of General Electric Co ..

“I think the industry can grow very quickly… once this first project, Vineyard Wind, is fully licensed, built and operational,” said Guthman, North American offshore wind business manager at GE Renewable Energy. , in an interview. “It will establish a licensing model and provide lessons learned that can be applied to future projects.… And there are over 14 GW of offshore wind projects that have already been awarded with power purchase agreements.”

GE is the official wind turbine maker for Vineyard Wind, which on September 15 entered into senior debt of $ 2.3 billion with nine banks and several other planned offshore projects.

Given the hurdles that include a arduous licensing process, however, the development of offshore wind in the United States will likely remain far behind Europe’s trajectory.

“The licensing process itself for early projects took over four years from initial submission to final project approval, and then another two years to be built, ”said Troy Patton, COO of the North American offshore region of Ørsted A / S. “It takes two or three times what it takes in Europe.”

Ørsted, the world’s largest offshore wind developer, owns the first commercial wind farm offshore the United States Since the development of Block Island Offshore Wind, a sharp drop in the prices of wind power purchase contracts fuels optimism as to the future of the industry.

“The first offshore [power purchase agreement] Block Island was priced at around $ 240 / MWh in 2016, but current projects cost only a fraction of that, ”wrote Adam Wilson of Regulatory Research Associates in March. “Notably, the announced Vineyard and Mayflower offshore projects have been leveled. [power purchase agreement] price between $ 58 / MWh and $ 74 / MWh. Although this price is still considerably higher than the onshore prices, the gap is narrowing. ”

In November 2020, the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities approved long-term contracts for the Mayflower Wind Offshore project, a joint venture between Shell New Energies US LLC of Royal Dutch Shell PLC and EDPR Offshore North America LLC, a subsidiary of EDP – Energias de Portugal SA, to supply state electricity distribution companies.

At the same time, financing the development of offshore wind is a new front for even the biggest Wall Street banks when it comes to using federal tax credits to fund returns, given the scale of the projects.

“Mmost of the offshore wind projects we see in our sponsors’ pipeline require more than $ 1 billion tax capital investment “, SamAntha Buechner, director of the renewable energy and environmental finance team at Wells Fargo, explained. “YesUsually you’ll need two to three really big tax capital investors who can write really big checks … and so we have some experience already negotiate with several parties and work with other banking partners. “

Nonetheless, Mark Mitchell of Dominion Energy Inc. pointed out that US offshore wind remains a very attractive investment proposition as decarbonization progresses.

“Tthe wind is blowing fairly constantly, and … since it is associated with solar in particular, the generation models actually complement each other, “ the senior vice president of utility presideNT of the construction of the noted project. “Yesou get closer to renewable energies 24/7. “

Domination announced plans in 2019 to develop more than 2,600 MW of offshore wind capacity by 2026 offshore Virginia. Construction of the $ 8 billion Virginia Beach offshore wind project‘s the first phase is expected to be completed in 2024 pending a decision from the United States Bureau of Ocean Energy Management.
