Description

US Wind plans to build a substation in Sussex County to connect offshore wind power to the regional electric grid. The substation is a key component of Delaware's offshore wind strategy to expand renewable energy, reduce emissions, and stabilize future energy supply. The project faced local opposition and zoning denial by Sussex County, but the Delaware General Assembly passed legislation to override the local zoning denial, and the Delaware Court of Chancery upheld the state's authority to do so.
