Local Communities are the heart of Vineyard Offshore

Putting communities first

Vineyard Offshore’s community-led approach to our projects means we are committed to reflecting the priorities and needs of local communities. We spend a great deal of time listening to and learning from community groups, local leaders, and residents, then working with a host of partners to maximize project benefits.
