According to Iberdrola, Trump's order will not affect 80% of the U.S. Marine Wind Farm
The electric company has specified that the suspension promised by the U.S. Government only affects projects under construction, and that most of the Vineyard Wind Park, which is already producing energy off the coast of Massachusetts, is in operation.
Iberdrola has clarified that the order of the United States Government to suspend several offshore wind projects at sea will not significantly affect its offshore facility in the country. The company has specified that the Vineyard Wind Park has 62 wind turbines, 44 of which are in operation and produce energy,in addition to six other projects already built .
Vineyard Wind, Iberdrola's largest marine wind farm in the United States and off the coast of Massachusetts, has a capacity of 806 megawatts and has generated an investment of about 2.7 billion euros , as confirmed to EITB by company sources.
The Donald Trump administration announced the immediate suspension of five offshore wind farms under construction, including Vineyard Wind 1, citing risks to national security identified by the War Department in recent classified reports.
The US Executive argued that the measure will make it possible to assess possible mitigation of these risks, together with the promoters and the states involved. However, Iberdrola has stressed that the order does not affect the wind turbines already built and in operation, which are the majority of the project.
The company noted that Vineyard Wind is already providing power to the electricity grid and will remain committed to developing renewable energies in the United States.
