States Sue Over Trump’s Wind Deal

States Sue Over Trump’s Wind Deal

Published 3 days, 4 hours ago
Description

New York and other states are suing the Trump administration over a controversial deal that refunds TotalEnergies $1 billion for offshore wind leases — but only if the company invests it in fossil fuels, sparking accusations of a climate-harming “sham” that undermines clean energy goals and union jobs. Meanwhile, renewable advocates in Oregon are challenging the Pentagon for delaying national security reviews on wind farms, halting development nationwide. Interior Secretary Burgum defends the deal as a refund for unviable projects, while Congress and California investigate related deals, including one that killed a floating wind project off New Jersey and New York.
