Three energy developers, including Orsted, Equinor, and Dominion Energy Virginia, are challenging the Trump administration's freeze on five East Coast offshore wind projects. The administration cited national security concerns, though specifics were not detailed. President Trump has publicly stated his opposition to windmills, calling them unprofitable and harmful to landscapes and birds. The Biden administration had aimed to expand offshore wind as a climate solution, contrasting with Trump's focus on fossil fuels. Legal actions are underway, with Orsted's Revolution Wind project having the first hearing.
