"BP and Equinor Scrap Empire Wind 2 Contract, Undermining New York's Renewable Push"

Equinor and BP have canceled their contract to sell power from the Empire Wind 2 offshore wind farm to New York State due to economic challenges such as inflation, higher borrowing costs, and supply chain issues. The companies are repositioning the project in light of a new solicitation by New York that allows for renegotiation of contracts, potentially at higher prices. The state's commitment to offshore wind remains strong, with an expedited solicitation's winners to be announced in February. Despite setbacks, the offshore wind industry is crucial for U.S. decarbonization goals, with the first power from New York's and Massachusetts' offshore wind farms being delivered recently.

"Equinor and BP Scrap Empire Wind 2 Offshore Project Amid Contract Cancellation"

BP Plc and Equinor ASA have canceled their contract with New York for the Empire Wind 2 project, a 1.3-gigawatt offshore wind farm, due to economic challenges that rendered the project unfeasible. The decision reflects broader issues in the U.S. offshore wind industry, including inflation and supply chain problems. The companies are looking for new opportunities and will forfeit a $6.3 million security deposit to New York. This setback is part of a larger trend of disputes and cancellations affecting nearly half of the U.S. offshore wind capacity under contract.
