Developer Vineyard Wind is now engaged in financing discussions for its 800MW Massachusetts offshore wind farm – set to be the first major array in the US – and sees 2021 as a “realistic” timeframe to have it fully in operation, according to the developer.
Vineyard sees “strong interest” from the financial community including banks and tax equity investors in the project, James Torgerson, chief executive of Avangrid, 50-50 joint owner with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), said on a recent conference call.
