Massachusetts Leads Offshore Wind Revolution

Massachusetts just launched the nation’s first utility-scale offshore wind farm, Vineyard Wind 1, set to power over 400,000 homes and slash carbon emissions by 1.6 million tons yearly. More than just clean energy, the project pioneered the first union-backed labor agreement for offshore wind, ensuring fair wages and training hundreds of locals—including first-time workers—into skilled trades.
