The Trump Administration's executive orders, including an immediate review of federal leasing and permitting practices for wind energy, raise significant concerns about the future of offshore wind development in California. Key stakeholders, including Pacific offshore wind director Molly Croll, express worry that this move may hinder the nation’s ability to harness renewable energy effectively. California policymakers are seeking clarity on the implications of these changes but remain optimistic about continuing to serve residents despite the uncertainties surrounding offshore wind projects.
The directive has companies that already acquired leases to develop offshore wind farms wondering whether it amounts to just a bump in the road or something more dire.
We're still looking at potential impacts of the directive, but are sorry to see an American energy source targeted that's capable of delivering power at the scale this country needs moving forward.
