The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) has approved Sunrise Wind’s plan for construction and operations.
This is the 924 MW project’s final approval from BOEM, following the Department of the Interior’s March Record of Decision.
“BOEM’s approval of the Sunrise Wind project represents another step in building a thriving offshore wind energy industry,” said BOEM Director Elizabeth Klein.
“The Biden-Harris administration continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing responsible projects like Sunrise Wind as part of our strategy to foster good paying jobs for local communities, ignite economic development and fight the harmful effects of climate change.”
