The US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management sent Ørsted a letter on Friday ordering it to “halt all ongoing activities” at its Revolution Wind project. The site was about 80% complete, with 45 of its 65 turbines already installed.
On Saturday, the governors of Rhode Island and Connecticut promised to “pursue every avenue” to reverse the order.
