European Developers Propose Offshore Wind in New York and Massachusetts

in offshore •  8 years ago 


Areas in New England just outside of those that have been earmarked for offshore wind development have attracted interest from German developer PNE Wind AG and Norway developer Statoil ASA.
The sites are south of Long Island in New York and Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, Bloomberg reported. The two companies want the U.S. government to open these sites for offshore development.
Both requests were unsolicited and a continued sign of interest in offshore wind in the Atlantic coast. Statoil already has another project slated in the area after purchasing the development rights.
So far, the U.S. government has awarded 12 leases for wind projects.
