Court Ruling on Revolution Wind Project: A federal judge ruled that Orsted can resume work on the Revolution Wind project off Rhode Island, which had been halted by the Trump administration, marking a significant legal victory for the company.
Impact of the Ruling: The project, expected to power 350,000 homes, had been costing Orsted $2 million daily since the halt. The ruling allows construction to continue while the U.S. Interior Department reviews the project, with support from Rhode Island and Connecticut officials.
