Win With Wind

For the first time in U.S. history, a “utility scale” offshore wind turbine in federal waters sent electricity to customers ashore last week — and hundreds more are planned along the East Coast. But the industry is facing some major headwinds. @benstracy reports.

@nylcv @WinWithWIND1 @SouthForkWind @julietighe17 @OrstedUS @EversourceCorp Amazing and historic!!!! #RenewableEnergy #OffshoreWind #SFW #FirstInTheNation

More great news for our clean energy future! @BOEM has issued a Final Environmental Impact Statement for Sunrise Wind! We're loving all of this offshore wind progress—let's go! @Orsted @EversourceCorp boem.gov/renewable-ener…

"The pollution comes from fertilizers and pesticides running off farm fields, from sediment clogging up rivers and streams after land has been cleared and from human sewage and industrial waste." nytimes.com/2023/12/11/cli…

Incredible footage! @SouthForkWind's 1st turbine is up & running & providing clean power to NY! NYLCV Pres @JulieTighe17 along w/ state leaders joined the project's developers @OrstedUS & @EversourceCorp for an up-close look at the what is the start of a new era of clean energy!

A light chop off Montauk Point... @SouthForkWind

Eleven to go. @SouthForkWind @OrstedUS @Orsted @EversourceCorp @EastHamptonTown @EHTownTrustees #offshorewind #RenewableEnergy

@MeaghanWims @DuffyAndShanley @SouthForkWind Thank you Meaghan.

An American clean energy first, nearly a decade in the making. All of us at @DuffyAndShanley have been proud to support this journey thru all the twists and turns. Today was one for the record books. @SouthForkWind ⚡️First Power ⚡️

@john_p_penney @WinWithWIND1 was there.

100 or so passengers (a lot of them press) onboard the ferry for a 9-hour round-trip to South Fork Wind project site located 35 miles east of Montauk

You all have worked so hard, congratulations! You have set the standard on so many levels of how to get #cleanenergy and #offshorewind a reality in the USA! Thank you!

@SouthForkWind. Turbine number one. Already generating electricity for East Hampton. @OrstedUS @Orsted @EversourceCorp @EastHamptonTown @EHTownTrustees

Off the coast of Long Island, an 800-foot-tall turbine begun sending electricity onto the U.S. grid. The site will very likely be the country’s first commercial offshore wind farm — a milestone many years in the making. apne.ws/6A5EUWR

Assemblyman @fred_thiele and Judith Hope, founder of @WinWithWIND1, speak at the Celebration of First #OffshoreWind Power to Long Island event today. @OrstedUS @SouthForkWind

“When I look in this room, I think of the word courage.” - @Doreen_M_Harris @NYSERDA reflecting on the steadfast leadership of the East Hampton community that championed this historic New York-first offshore wind farm. #BuildingSouthFork ⚡First Power⚡

⚡First Power⚡ It's an electric day on Long Island, where the #BuildingSouthFork team is joining East Hampton community and state leaders to mark the historic #FirstPower delivered by New York's first offshore wind farm.

@earthvoice17 Adrienne Esposito at First Power thanking Win With Wind for our public support for change. @SouthForkWind @OrstedUS @Orsted #OffshoreWind Thank you Adrienne!

First Power event. Electricity is flowing from @SouthForkWind to @EastHamptonTown!!! @OrstedUS @Orsted #OffshoreWind

New York’s best bet for entering the era of offshore wind power is stacked up at the water’s edge in Connecticut. nyti.ms/49Xpbve

Breaking! @NYSERDA announced two expedited renewable energy solicitations as part of NY’s 10-Point Action Plan to bolster our large-scale renewable industry. Proposals for both offshore wind and land-based renewable projects are due in January 2024. nyserda.ny.gov/About/Newsroom…
