US Reviewing Five Offshore Wind Farms Under Construction

Five US offshore wind developments are under review, a top Trump administration official said on Wednesday, as the White House targets the renewable energy source.

“Right now, under this administration there is not a future” for offshore wind projects, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, the head of President Donald Trump’s energy dominance council, said during an energy conference in Milan. “I think the fact that subsidies have been either cut back or limited means that it’s likely that there won’t be future offshore wind built in America.”
