More Than 150 Wind Projects Stall as Pentagon Delays Reviews
The Trump administration is blocking over 150 onshore wind farms in the US by delaying Pentagon reviews, citing national security concerns. The stalled projects would have 30 gigawatts of electric generating capacity, enough to power over 9 million homes.
The Trump administration is delaying military reviews for over 150 onshore wind farms across the US, effectively blocking their construction. The American Clean Power Association says the delays have worsened in recent weeks. The wind farms, located on private land, require a Pentagon review to ensure their turbines won't interfere with military radar or flight paths. The stalled projects would have 30 gigawatts of electric generating capacity. A Pentagon spokesman said the agency is evaluating all onshore wind projects to ensure they don't impair national security or military operations. The delays are part of the Trump administration's efforts to stop wind power, a technology President Trump detests.
