President Donald Trump’s order pausing efforts to plant wind turbines off U.S. coasts won’t affect Dominion’s $9 billion project for now. But the order calls for a review of existing leases.

President Donald Trump doesn’t like wind energy projects, but his order Monday pausing efforts to plant wind turbines off U.S. coasts apparently won’t affect Dominion Energy’s $9 billion project off the Virginia Beach Oceanfront – at least for now.
The project is slated to play a central role in moving the state towards a cleaner energy future.
Two pilot turbines are seen near Virginia Beach in 2022.
