Offshore Wind Projects Challenge Trump Administration’s Order to Stop Work

The developers of Revolution Wind off Rhode Island and Empire Wind off New York are the latest to sue the Trump administration.

The New York Times

#Equinor, the developer behind #EmpireWind, recently said that those delays & other regulatory changes affecting US offshore #wind projects had cost the company nearly $1B.

At the same time as it thwarts the wind industry, the #Trump admin has taken several steps to boost #oil & #gas as well as #coal, the dirtiest & most expensive #FossilFuel when it comes to burning it for #electricity.

In April, the #Trump admin ordered a halt to work at #EmpireWind, a $5B #WindFarm off the coast of #LongIsland that was already under construction, without publicly providing a justification. After a month of negotiations with #NY Gov #KathyHochul, the admin let Empire Wind move forward, but admin ofcls suggested that they had done so only after Hochul agreed to approve new #gas #pipelines in the state. Hochul has denied that any such deal was made.
