Join DCP (Department of City Planning) for a tour of WindScape Brooklyn, New York’s first learning center focused on offshore wind education. This tour is one of the many events featured as part of the DCP’s annual celebration of New York City’s 520 miles of waterfront. Free events will take place in all five boroughs between May 16 and 21.

The 2026 NYSEDC Annual Meeting is a multi day conference focused on economic development, energy policy, infrastructure, and emerging industries shaping New York State’s future. Bringing together economic development professionals, public sector leaders, energy experts, and private industry representatives, the event features keynote discussions, breakout sessions, networking opportunities, and industry panels on topics including grid modernization, renewable energy, workforce development, data centers, housing, manufacturing, and regional economic growth. Attendees will engage with conversations surrounding clean energy transition, infrastructure planning, sustainability, and the evolving relationship between economic development and climate related policy priorities across New York State.

Sustainability Programming & Savings Opportunities for Nonprofits is a webinar focused on helping nonprofit organizations explore energy efficiency, sustainability initiatives, and workforce development resources that can strengthen organizational capacity and reduce operating costs. The event highlights programs related to energy upgrades, utility savings, sustainability education, and workforce training opportunities that nonprofits can share with employees, members, and community clients. Attendees will engage with information on clean energy resources, climate responsive practices, and strategies for incorporating sustainability into organizational operations while supporting broader community resilience and environmental goals.

The 2026 Waterfront Conference will convene leaders from government, industry, science, and community sectors to tackle one of the most pressing challenges of our time: how to plan, design, and build resilient waterfronts in the face of accelerating climate impacts and shrinking political and financial support.

Windscape Brooklyn will be hosting an Open Hours session at their Sunset Park address. Visitors will be able to visit the center between 10 AM and 4 PM to view its facilities as well as engage with the team.
