A wave of impairments is sweeping through the U.S. wind-energy sector amid high interest rates, inflation and supply-chain woes, forcing developers to put off projects and casting doubts over the industry’s outlook.
The decision came a week before legislative elections in New Jersey, where wind turbines have become a top target for Republicans against Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy’s plan to have 100% of the state’s power coming from renewables by 2035. Earlier this week, BP booked a $540 million pretax impairment charge on three wind projects off the coast of New York afterto renegotiate power-purchase terms to reflect inflationary pressures and permitting delays. Equinor, BP’s partner on the Empire Wind and Beacon Wind projects, booked an impairment of around $300 million on its U.S. portfolio. The companies said they are assessing the impact of the regulators’ decision on their future development plans.
