Donald Trump Opposes Offshore Wind Energy Development in New Jersey
Days before taking office as President of the United States, Donald Trump expressed his strong opposition to offshore wind energy and marine parks through a post on Truth Social. He urged for the North Sea to be opened and wind turbines to be dismissed, claiming that rising inflation and uncertainties threaten the developing offshore wind sector in New Jersey. As Trump’s administration prepares to take control of the federal Offshore Energy Management Agency, questions remain about the future of these renewable energy projects in the U.S.
