New York sues over the Trump administration’s deal to end an offshore wind project

New York and six other states sued the Trump administration over a $1 billion deal with TotalEnergies to cancel offshore wind projects in favor of fossil fuel investments, arguing it harms economies, energy grids, and climate goals. The lawsuit claims the lease cancellation violated procedures and threatens clean energy progress, as TotalEnergies had planned a 3 gigawatt project to power nearly one million homes.
