"The Biden administration on Tuesday approved a wind energy project off Rhode Island, the fourth major commercial-scale offshore wind energy project approved by the Biden Interior Department.
The Revolution Wind project is set to be located about 15 nautical miles southeast of the town of Point Judith, with a projected capacity of just more than 700 megawatts, the Interior Department said in an announcement Tuesday. It follows previously announced projects off Massachusetts, New York and New Jersey as well as another approved project off Rhode Island.
The administration has set a goal of 30 gigawatts of offshore wind power capacity by the end of the decade, part of a broader goal of cutting U.S. carbon emissions in half by 2030. By the middle of the 2030s, the administration aims to deploy another 15 gigawatts of offshore wind through the use of floating turbines."
