Court Clears Sunrise Wind to Move Forward After Offshore Wind Freeze
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge granted an injunction allowing Ørsted’s Sunrise Wind project off New York to resume construction after the Trump-era halt on five offshore wind leases, ruling that the delays could cause irreparable harm due to loss of a specialized installation vessel; Sunrise Wind is about 45% complete and, once built, would power roughly 600,000 homes, with operation possible as soon as October, while the underlying lawsuit challenging the stop-work order continues.
