Offshore wind turbines at the Vineyard Wind site. (Miriam Wasser/WBUR)In another attack on offshore wind, the Trump administration is looking to reconsider a key permit for SouthCoast Wind, a planned 141-turbine project off the Massachusetts coast. The COP is the last major federal permit an offshore wind project needs before it can start putting turbines in the water. The second, SouthCoast Wind 2, is still in development and the company hasn’t yet bid it in any state auctions. SouthCoast Wind isn’t the only Massachusetts wind project in jeopardy.
