Revolution Wind, Rhode Island’s first large-scale offshore wind project, was put on ice by the Trump administration Friday, which ordered developers to immediately stop construction. The project is already 80% completed,

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management stopped all activity related to the 704-megawatt wind farm that has contracts to deliver power to RI and CT.

Gov. Lamont and U.S. Sens. Murphy and Blumenthal criticized Trump’s decision to halt the wind project that was expected to provide 2.5% power to the state by next year.
