By Sergio Goncalves LISBON (Reuters) – EDP Renovaveis, the world’s fourth-largest wind producer, is “very optimistic” about its continued growth in the U.S. market after much of last year’s regulatory uncertainty was cleared, the company’s CEO told Reuters on Wednesday. In January 2025, President Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to halt the issuance of any… Read More
Premier Tim Houston tabled new legislation Tuesday that lays out what offshore wind developers will be expected to pay the province to operate and the charge is lower than was initially advertised. Nova Scotia plans to ask offshore wind developers to pay the province $7,000 per megawatt of their turbines’ capacity each year for the… Read More
America’s largest offshore wind project is about to begin generating electricity. Dominion Energy said Monday it expects Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind will start producing electricity before the end of March. The announcement follows a tumultuous period that saw the Trump administration halt work on the $11.5 billion project for nearly a month. It also comes… Read More
By Ian M. Stevenson CLIMATEWIRE | Despite a string of court losses, the Trump administration continues to oppose offshore wind projects and has not shared classified military concerns about five projects under construction with their developers. But proponents of the projects are aiming to make headway with the administration by leaning into growing concerns among voters… Read More
Recently, Boskalis’ oceangoing tug BOKA Sweeper has successfully completed the long-distance tow of the FPSO Djerba (formerly Gryphon A) from the North Sea to Yalova, Turkey. The tow was carried out safely and as planned, with the BOKA Glacier escorting the FPSO during the voyage. Upon arrival in Yalova, the FPSO was disconnected, after which… Read More
Offshore wind projects frequently encounter delays caused by limited cable lay vessel availability and long mobilisation periods. The new Modular Cable Lay Spread has been purpose-built to overcome these barriers, enabling rapid mobilisation and multi-vessel compatibility for both power cable installation and repair campaigns. At the core of the system’s design are palletised modules that… Read More
Saipem, a global leader in the engineering and construction of major projects for the energy and infrastructure sectors, has been awarded two offshore projects worth a total of $500 million in Saudi Arabia, under an existing long-term agreement (LTA) with Saudi oil giant Aramco. The scope of work under the first project includes provision of… Read More
By Alex Brown The five East Coast offshore wind projects that recently won court victories over the Trump administration have restarted construction, but they make up just a small fraction of Atlantic states’ ambitious plans for offshore wind. And the dozens of projects that have yet to start construction have little chance of advancing while… Read More
Ørsted and PGE have completed the first phase of seabed preparation for the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, a key step ahead of cable installation. Boskalis’ Boka Falcon vessel has cleared and conditioned around 150km of corridors for inter-array cables linking the turbines to offshore substations, with the project now moving into a… Read More
The Trump administration is appealing a federal judge’s order that voided Donald Trump’s day one memorandum pausing offshore wind energy projects, setting up a high-stakes court fight over green energy initiatives the president has long derided. The Department of Justice gave notice of the appeal on Wednesday after Judge Patti Saris sided with 17 blue states… Read More
By Debra K. Rubin The leading U.S. offshore wind energy development conference’s return to New York City in 2026 was more muted in celebrating major project milestones than what was likely envisioned at the first event in 2019, as the sector has coped with the economic realities of launching a new domestic industry and now faces the full… Read More
By Bojan Lepic New York State has killed its fifth offshore wind solicitation after 19 months of delays, citing federal actions under president Donald Trump for torpedoing market confidence and halting new OREC contracts. The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) closed the round on February 13 without awards, despite 25 proposals… Read More
Fabrication is officially underway following the steel‑cutting ceremony for LanWin1, McDermott’s second project in TenneT’s 2GW Program. Well done to our teams for driving progress toward delivering clean offshore wind energy from the North Sea to Germany. Source
Preparing cable routes for a future offshore wind farm is a time-consuming operation. This is certainly true in the Baltic Sea, off the Polish coast. In the very first stage, a geotechnical soil investigation must be carried out to determine the specific ground conditions. Boskalis’ subsidiary Gardline Limited was called in for this activity. Afterwards,… Read More
By Prince As much as wind power has been beneficial for the United States over the years, it has faced the most adversity in 2026 following the Trump Administration’s return to power. There is an increasing number of court cases that are either yet to be decided on or have been halted indefinitely, which has… Read More
