As the United States races to construct offshore wind power facilities that could transform coastlines across the East Coast, much remains unclear about how these facilities could impact the environment, and that’s a concern for many people, especially those who rely on the ocean for their livelihood.
The wind power industry denies these claims, pointing to years of research. To date, the federal government has approved four offshore wind development projects for the eastern seaboard, according to a report from the American Clean Energy Association (ACEA).
Vineyard Wind will install 62 offshore wind turbines, about 15 miles off the island’s coast, to generate enough power to power about 400,000 residential homes.
