Our joint report with the CSIS Intelligence, National Security, and Technology Program finds that offshore wind infrastructure could serve as a force multiplier for U.S. maritime domain awareness by filling surveillance gaps, integrating sensors, and monitoring subsea infrastructure.

There's lot's of talk about #midterm #elections, but on yesterday's #EnergyShots @CSISEnergy Director @JosephMajkut and I looked at #energy dimensions: #diesel, #datacenters, #Venezuela, #Permitting, the @POTUS #agenda and more. Join us:

Today on #EnergyShots ➡️@JosephMajkut and @kevinbookdc discussed how the data center build-out could shape the midterm elections.
Data centers used nearly 5% of U.S. electricity in 2024, increasingly becoming a hot topic for American voters.

Starting soon➡️ what does energy mean for the election and what does the election mean for energy?
ESCC Director @JosephMajkut & Senior Adviser @kevinbookdc discuss rising electricity prices, data center backlash, and more on #EnergyShots. ]

This week, we launched a new report on capturing national security benefits from offshore wind.
Watch Adjunct Fellow Allegra Dawes' presentation of key findings on how U.S. offshore infrastructure could transform from a perceived security risk into a force multiplier for maritime domain awareness.

Tomorrow on #EnergyShots: energy is the bipartisan issue of the 2026 midterms.
Data centers, rising electricity bills & what it all means for November. ESCC Director @JosephMajkut & Senior Adviser @kevinbookdc break it down at 10:30am EDT. ⬇️

NEW | In a new report, CSIS scholars study how offshore wind is more than just an energy source. This maritime infrastructure can provide a mode to strengthen maritime data surveillance, and some countries are already capturing the national security benefits.

tl;dr: the end of scarcity also ended bipartisan cooperation, but a new scarcity (of pipes and wires) could bring it back.
Unpack the rest on the latest @CSISEnergy #EnergyShots podcast, where @JosephMajkut and I tackle #permitting #reform:

EVENT🌐 Offshore wind turbines, subsea cables & substations could do more than generate power. They could strengthen maritime domain awareness.
Our new report with the Intelligence, National Security, and Technology Program examines how offshore energy infrastructure can support national security.

Energy policy consensus in Washington had been gone for years, but new scarcities in connectivity and manufacturing capacity could bring it back through the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (#BAAJA).

The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (BAAJA) could make waves in permitting reform.
In this week's episode of Energy Shots, @JosephMajkut and @kevinbookdc break down what the bill really means for the future of energy infrastructure.

In the latest #EnergyShots episode, @JosephMajkut and @kevinbookdc take a look at the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (BAAJA). After years of permitting reform traction, bipartisan efforts can help push BAAJA toward broader consensus.
