Denmark-based wind-power pioneer DONG Energy—the world’s largest offshore developer—has opened a Boston office, planning to build what could be North America’s largest offshore wind farm, located 15 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard.
Bay State Wind, DONG Energy’s U.S. entity, is proposing construction and operation of a utility-scale offshore wind farm, with installed capacity of up to 1,000 MW—more than double what Cape Wind proposed for its 130-turbine, 468-MW farm.
