A federal judge has granted Dominion Energy a preliminary injunction against the stop-work order the Trump administration slapped on the nation’s largest offshore wind project.

Democrats pressed a senior DOE official on recent decisions affecting PJM, including the agency's orders to keep coal plants running, while another agency shut down offshore wind projects nearing completion.

Three of the four developers building wind farms in U.S. waters are challenging the Trump administration’s Dec. 22 order suspending all such construction.

An announcement by the U.S. Department of Interior said the Department of Defense had identified wind farms as national security risks and is pausing offshore wind leases.

Democrats won elections in Virginia and Georgia that have implications for energy policy: offshore wind and data centers in Virginia and affordability in both.

Dominion Energy reported $1 billion in net income in the third quarter, which saw it remain on track with its offshore wind project while its pipeline of data center customers grew yet again.

The infrastructure that supports our ability to generate and move critically needed electrons relies heavily on a regulatory environment that offers some consistent level of predictability, says columnist Peter Kelly-Detwiler.

Dominion Energy reported demand growth from data centers in its territory and that its CVOW offshore wind project was more than halfway complete on its second quarter earnings call.

Dominion Energy reported that Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind has already seen slight cost impacts from President Trump's tariffs, which could grow as the project is still on track for completion in 2026.

Conference attendees are optimistic that the rapidly rising demand for energy will mean the federal government eventually will have to harness wind power.
