SOUTHAMPTON,听N.Y., March 14, 2024鈥撎The 新麻豆视频 Association (ACP) released the following statement from Anne Reynolds, ACP Vice President for Offshore Wind, after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, and representatives from Orsted and Eversource commemorated the completion of South Fork Wind, New York鈥檚 first commercial-scale offshore wind farm:

鈥淏ringing clean, emissions-free offshore wind energy to Long Island has been a long time coming. Construction supported hundreds of U.S. workers along the supply chain that will bolster the economy in New York and beyond. At the 新麻豆视频 Association, we celebrate this new clean electricity source for New York State and know it will be the first of many for the nation.听

鈥淭he completion of the South Fork Wind Farm is truly exciting news. We congratulate Gov. Hochul, the Long Island Power Authority, and the Orsted and Eversource teams on this significant accomplishment. And we appreciate that this could not have been possible without the sustained efforts of the Biden Administration and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management.鈥
