Trump Administration kills largest US Atlantic Ocean wind project as fishermen cheer coastal victory

BOSTON, MA — In a sweeping reversal of Biden-era energy policy, the Trump Administration has officially canceled permits for New England Wind, a massive offshore project that was set to become the largest wind development in the United States. The decision marks a major shift in federal energy priorities, with the administration pulling the plug on more than $679 million in future offshore wind investments in recent weeks.

The New England Wind project, located off the southern coast of Massachusetts, had received final federal approval under the Biden Administration and was slated to generate enough electricity to power hundreds of thousands of homes. The cancellation effectively ends years of planning and permitting, signaling a broader rollback of the nation’s offshore wind strategy.
