Trump’s wind war may claim its first major casualty soon

from POLITICO Energy · host POLITICO

One of the largest offshore wind energy projects in the United States could be cancelled in the coming days unless the Trump administration lifts its stop-work order – potentially the first big casualty in President Donald Trump’s war against America’s offshore wind energy industry. Ben Storrow from POLITICO’s E&E News breaks down why the company backing the project, Equinor, is considering cancelling it and what that would mean for the industry at large. Plus, Senate Republicans are pushing back on the House GOP’s proposed rollback of Democrats’ clean energy credits and say there will have to be changes to earn their support.
