Revolution Wind announced today that its wind farm off the coast of Rhode Island is fully operational and sending power to the nation’s Northeastern grids. 

The project faced numerous unpopular stop work orders and roadblocks from the Trump administration but was ultimately allowed to continue construction by the federal courts. 

Revolution Wind is a 704-megawatt project with 65 turbines and the capacity to power 350,000 homes. 

Following the announcement, the BlueGreen Alliance released a statement from Northeast Regional Field Manager Lisa Wood: 

“Revolution Wind persevered against outrageous attacks from the Trump administration and is delivering much needed energy for the Northeast. Offshore wind is a clean, resilient power source for the country—lowering energy costs for our communities and creating good, union jobs for workers across the region. What a huge victory for the country!”
