In a significant move towards clean energy, President Joe Biden’s administration has given the green light to the largest offshore wind farm project in the U.S. Dominion Energy’s Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) project, located 23.5 nautical miles off Virginia Beach, will provide clean energy to hundreds of thousands of homes. This project is part of the Biden administration’s commitment to a clean energy future, addressing the climate crisis, reducing energy costs, and creating jobs. The project, one of five such approvals under the administration, is set to supply a substantial 2.6 gigawatts of energy to the national grid, contributing to the U.S. goal of achieving 30 gigawatts of wind energy by 2030. Despite challenges, such as leasing and permitting bottlenecks, the U.S. is making progress in renewable energy.
