This session will look at the prospects for onshore wind and offshore wind in the US following the recent US election.

• Which types of investors are driving the growth of wind in North America?
• Which North American onshore wind markets will be key destinations for investors?
• What impact will the US election result have on wind investment up until 2025?
• Would you expect to see another surprise extension of the production tax credit?
• Are you confident in the prospects for growth in US offshore wind in the 2020s?
• We have seen California establishing itself as an early leader in energy storage as a way to mitigate the impact of wildfires. Do you expect the country to emerge as a leader in the energy storage market globally? Will this support further growth in wind too?
• Are we ever going to find solutions to the challenge of building transmission?
• Do you expect Covid-19 to have long-term impacts on wind in North America?
