Major U.S. offshore wind project completes construction
美國大型離岸風電計畫完成建設
On March 13, 2026, the United States marked a major energy milestone as Vineyard Wind 1, located off the coast of Massachusetts, officially finished construction.
2026年3月13日，位於麻薩諸塞州外海的「葡萄園風電一期」(Vineyard Wind 1)正式完工，標誌著美國能源發展達成了一項重大里程碑。
This ambitious project, a partnership between Avangrid and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, features 62 turbines capable of generating 800 megawatts of electricity—enough to power 400,000 homes.
這項雄心勃勃的計畫由Avangrid公司與哥本哈根基礎建設基金合作，設有62座渦輪機，發電量高達800百萬瓦，足以為40萬戶家庭供電。
Despite facing significant legal challenges and a political environment often hostile to wind energy, the project overcame attempts to halt construction, proving its resilience.
儘管該計畫面臨嚴峻的法律挑戰與對風能發展較不友善的政治環境，仍成功克服了各項試圖阻撓施工的阻力，展現了其韌性。
This completion comes as another project, Revolution Wind, begins delivering power to the New England grid.
隨著該計畫完工，另一個「革命風電」(Revolution Wind)計畫也開始向新英格蘭電網輸送電力。
Together, these developments represent the largest renewable energy efforts east of the Mississippi.
這些進展共同代表了密西西比河以東規模最大的再生能源開發案。
As the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project nears completion, the region continues its shift away from fossil fuels, strengthening the power grid against potential winter blackouts.
隨著「維吉尼亞沿海離岸風電」(Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind)計畫即將完成，該地區持續轉型脫離化石燃料，並增強電網以預防冬季停電風險。
