New Jersey has announced plans to build the US’ first dedicated offshore wind port, an up-to-$400m investment that will support the state’s goal of having 7.5GW of sea-based capacity in commercial operation by 2035.
Governor Phil Murphy said the New Jersey Wind Port (NJWP) would create thousands of high-quality jobs, be a magnet for sector private investment and establish the state as the “national capital of offshore wind”.
