FILE - Two of the offshore wind turbines have been constructed off the coast of Virginia Beach, Va., June 29, 2020. A power company's plans for an enormous offshore wind farm off Virginia's coast achieved a major regulatory milestone Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2023, after the Biden Administration evaluated the project's potential impact on the environment.
Dominion plans to build 176 turbines more than 20 miles off the coast from the hotels and touristy boardwalk of Virginia Beach. Dominion said its project will be the largest offshore wind farm under development in the United States. The project will"significantly reduce Dominion’s reliance on coal and methane gas and also means cost savings for customers,” Will Cleveland, a senior attorney in the law center's Virginia office, said in a statement.
