Invenergy-led Leading Light offshore wind project is spearheading supply chain and workforce development in the New York City borough of Staten Island with up to $300m in investments.

The developer, which includes New York-based renewables firm energyRE, is bidding its 2.1GW Leading Light project into the state’s round 3 tender with proposals that include leveraging the Arthur Kill Terminal (AKT), the state’s only proposed deepwater marshalling and assembly port with no overhead restrictions.
