These data represent offshore wind turbines and supporting infrastructure within the United States Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) as of February 2024. Seven turbines are operational, five at the Block Island Wind site and two at the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind site. The seven turbines are responsible for 42 megawatts of power generation capacity. Additional turbines are actively under construction at the Vineyard Wind 1 site, South Fork Wind site, Revolution Wind site, and the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind site.
To support ocean planning activities pursuant to the Executive Order Regarding the Ocean Policy to Advance the Economic, Security, and Environmental Interests of the United States, the Energy Policy Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Rivers and Harbors Act, and the Coastal Zone Management Act.
