Two wind farms that will bring New Jersey closer to its goal of 7.5 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2035 and 100% clean energy by 2050 have been approved by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities. The two projects will create 7,000 full- or part-time jobs, generate $3.5 billion in economic benefits and power 1.15 million homes with clean energy. It was the US's largest combined award to date and will generate a combined 2,658 megawatts of offshore wind capacity around 15 miles off the Atlantic City coast. The projects are being carried out by rsted as well as by EDF and Shell.
