New York Awards New Contracts for 4 Gigawatts of Offshore Wind Power

New York has awarded contracts to three new offshore wind projects that will provide 12% of the state's power by 2030.

The awards come after developers sought to renegotiate other New York offshore wind contracts due to rising costs.

The new projects are being developed by TotalEnergies, RWE, National Grid, and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners.

Together the projects will provide over 4 gigawatts of offshore wind power capacity.

New York is also committing $300 million to offshore wind manufacturing facilities planned by GE.
