The Biden administration on Wednesday identified new areas for potential offshore wind development off the coasts of Oregon and several central Atlantic states, its latest step toward bolstering the nascent U.S. industry.
Offshore wind is a key pillar of President Joe Biden's plan to fight climate change by decarbonizing the U.S. power sector by 2035 and the entire economy by 2050.
The agency, which oversees offshore wind development, also identified six areas, or 3.9 million acres, between Delaware and North Carolina. The areas are about 20 nautical miles or more from shore.
