A federal judge ruled that work on the Revolution Wind offshore wind project can resume following the December 22 stop work order issued by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), which paused construction for at least 90 days on five major offshore wind projects (Vineyard Wind 1, Revolution Wind, Sunrise Wind, Empire Wind and Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind-commercial) projects while the federal government reviews national security concerns raised in a classified report the Department of War provided to the agency in November. Revolution Wind, which is being developed by Orsted, has received all of its federal permits and is nearly 90% complete to provide power for Rhode Island and Connecticut.
