Even with South Fork functioning at its full capacity of 130 MW, New York is left 8,870 MW away from the 9,000 MW target. The scale of development necessary to meet this target is daunting. The draft Biennial Review reports that supply chain constraints, inflation, rising interest rates, scarcity of high-voltage direct current cables, and changes to the cost of capital and inputs challenge offshore development projects. In its 2022 solicitation NYSERDA awarded preliminarily awarded contracts to three offshore wind farms that would have provided <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utilitydive.com\/news\/new-york-offshore-wind-projects-cancelled-turbine\/713833\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4,000 MW of capacity<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, but on June 7, 2023, the developers submitted petitions to the New York State Public Service Commission requesting amendments to their contracts outside of the competitive solicitation process, citing increased capital costs, high inflation, and supply chain bottlenecks. These petitions were denied, leading to the cancellation of all projects in October of 2023. In light of this attrition, New York Governor Hochul announced in October a 10-Point Action Plan <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.ny.gov\/news\/governor-hochul-announces-new-10-point-action-plan-expand-renewable-energy-industry-and#:~:text=This%20Action%20Plan%20serves%20to,from%20renewable%20sources%20by%202030.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to affirm the State\u2019s commitment to and provide clear benchmarks for renewable energy development<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, including <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyserda.ny.gov\/About\/Newsroom\/2023-Announcements\/2023-11-30-NYSERDA-Announces-Launch-of-Expedited-Renewable-Energy-Solicitations\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">an expedited competitive solicitation process<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> announced by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) in November. However, macroeconomic factors continue to impact the profitability and therefore development prospects of American offshore wind. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.equinor.com\/news\/20240103-empire-wind-2-offshore-wind-project-announces-reset\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In January<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the contract of Empire 1\u2019s sister project, Empire Wind 2, was terminated with NYSERDA, due to developer\u2019s concerns about inflation, interest rates, and supply chain disruptions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the month preceding the release of the draft Biennial Report, New York State and New York City announced actions that represent much-needed incremental progress towards the State\u2019s offshore wind goals. Governor Hochul <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyserda.ny.gov\/About\/Newsroom\/2024-Announcements\/2024_06_04-Governor-Hochul-Announces-The-Finalization-of-Contracts-For-Two-Offshore-Wind\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">announced<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> on June 4, 2024 the finalization of contracts for Sunrise Wind, which would be the nation\u2019s largest offshore wind farm, and Empire Wind 1, which would be the first offshore wind farm to connect directly to the New York City grid. Sunrise Wind, a 924 MW project developed by \u00d8rsted and Eversource, and Empire Wind 1, a 810 MW project developed by Equinor, together would supply 1,700 megawatts (MW) of power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This would provide the capacity to power 1 million New York homes, immediately create 800 jobs, and provide $6 billion in economic benefits through in-state spending during the projects\u2019 25-year lifespan. With a weighted average all-in development cost of $150.15 per MWh, these projects would provide power on par with current market prices, increasing New Yorkers\u2019 energy bills by approximately $2 a month. The projects were first selected during New York\u2019s first offshore wind solicitation in 2019, but developers successfully re-bid the projects in the 2023 solicitation process.

The updated contracts also obligate the companies to provide additional community benefits, with Eversource alone to direct $32 million to disadvantaged communities in community-focused investments and $16.5 million towards wildlife and fisheries monitoring. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To enable the future expansion of offshore wind infrastructure, New York City <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyc.gov\/office-of-the-mayor\/news\/461-24\/mayor-adams-governor-hochul-nycedc-equinor-ssbmt-start-construction-transform#\/0\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mayor Eric Adams announced<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> on June 10 that the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal will soon seat the nation\u2019s largest offshore wind port. The Marine Terminal will host the operations and maintenance hub for Empire 1, a substation to connect the project into the grid through the Gowanus Substation, and a charger for the first plug-in hybrid vessel to be used in the U.S. offshore wind industry. This project is part of Mayor Adams\u2019s Harbor of the Future Plan and Green Economy Action Plan, and is a deliverable of New York City\u2019s 15-year, $191 million Offshore Wind Vision Plan that began in 2021. To prepare New Yorkers for employment in future offshore wind projects, the Mayor\u2019s announcement said that the City and Equinor are funding initiatives such as apprenticeship programs and skill-building courses. The State has pledged $77 million to develop the offshore wind workforce and the labor agreement of the Empire Wind project also prioritizes the hiring of hyperlocal union workers from the Sunset Park area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyserda.ny.gov\/All-Programs\/Offshore-Wind\/Focus-Areas\/Offshore-Wind-Solicitations\/2024-Solicitation\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2024 offshore solicitation process is currently<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> underway and awards will be announced Q1 of 2025.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reutersevents.com\/renewables\/wind\/us-states-urged-co-plan-grids-curb-offshore-wind-costs\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The State is working<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to support the development of grid connection and assured material supply for the future offshore wind industry. On April 23, 2024, NYSERDA released New York\u2019s first solicitation focused exclusively on developing the offshore wind supply chain, seeking to award $200 million in grant funding for port infrastructure and manufacturing facilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Public Service Commission has initiated a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyiso.com\/documents\/20142\/1397429\/agenda%206%20M-36_PPTPP%20Manual_Draft.pdf\/54151f21-7da8-a2e8-1d40-88315bb3163c#:~:text=The%20PPTPP%20consists%20of%20four,to%20a%20Public%20Policy%20Transmission\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Public Policy Transmission Need Process<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where they will identify transmission development needs required to comply with a law, regulation, or rulemaking order. Interested entities propose solutions to address this need, and an evaluation process results in transmission development. In June 2023 the Commission announced a Public Policy Transmission Need (PPTN) for infrastructure to integrate at least 4,770 MW of offshore wind into the New York City grid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even with Sunrise Wind and Empire Wind 1, New York still requires 7,170 MW more of offshore wind development in the next nine years to meet the 9,000 MW CLCPA target. Considering the attrition that occurred in 2023, the draft Biennial Report suggests that it may be necessary for NYSERDA to contract more than 7,170 MW over the next two solicitations, NY5 and NY6, the first starting this summer. These solicitations will seek projects that can be deployed by 2030, and the report finds that each project should provide approximately 14,048 GWh (1603 MW) of power, or, accounting for a predicted 30% attrition rate, 20,068 GWh per project (2,290 MW). <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The draft of New York\u2019s Clean Energy Standard Biennial Review was published July 1 by New York State Department of Public Service (NYS DPS) and New York State Energy Research and Development (NYSERDA).
