The United States federal administration has announced the immediate suspension of five major offshore wind projects under construction along the East Coast, citing reasons linked to national security. The decision, communicated by the Department of the Interior, applies exclusively to installations located in the Atlantic, including the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW), one of the most advanced projects. It is set for a 90-day duration, according to the authorities, to “assess the possibility of mitigating the risks” identified by the Department of Defense.
