Overview
- Revolution Wind, a 50–50 joint venture of Ørsted and Skyborn Renewables, has begun sending electricity to the New England grid from its roughly 704 MW offshore array.
- The project will supply Rhode Island and Connecticut under 20-year fixed-price contracts and is expected to serve more than 350,000 homes and businesses.
- Rhode Island officials report the wind farm is about 93% complete and on track for full commercial operations in the second half of 2026.
- Connecticut energy regulators project up to $500 million per year in wholesale cost savings once the project is fully online, with ISO New England highlighting winter reliability benefits.
- Vineyard Wind has completed installation of all 62 turbines, as courts blocked stop‑work orders and lease suspensions that the federal government had issued for multiple offshore wind projects.
