US Court Authorizes Resumption of Orsted’s Revolution Wind Offshore Project

Federal Judge Royce Lamberth, sitting in Washington, authorized the resumption of construction on the Revolution Wind offshore wind farm, developed by Danish group Orsted off the northeastern coast of the United States. This preliminary ruling temporarily invalidates the suspension order issued in late December by the Trump administration concerning major offshore wind projects. The US administration had justified this measure by citing national security threats, without providing further details.
