"Vineyard Wind Energizes New England with First Large-Scale Offshore Power Delivery"

The Vineyard Wind project, an offshore wind farm located off the coast of Martha's Vineyard, has begun delivering power to New England's electric grid, marking a significant milestone for the American offshore wind industry. One of the five completed GE Haliade-X turbines supplied approximately 5 megawatts of power, with plans to have all turbines operational early this year. Once fully complete, the wind farm will consist of 62 turbines, generating enough electricity for around 400,000 homes and businesses. This development represents a key step towards Massachusetts' goal of energy independence and aligns with the Biden administration's broader objectives for renewable energy expansion on the East Coast.
