5 Offshore Wind Farms Move Ahead After Trump Admin
Why it matters: Five US East Coast offshore wind farms can now proceed with construction.
- US Department of the Interior missed the final deadline to appeal court rulings.
- Five US East Coast offshore wind farms are now able to continue construction.
- Court rulings previously allowed the wind farms to proceed, which the Trump administration had the option to appeal.
The Trump administration's Department of the Interior failed to meet the appeal deadline for court rulings, clearing the way for five offshore wind farms to proceed with construction along the US East Coast. This inaction effectively removes a significant legal hurdle for these projects.
