Description
Description | The Trump administration will pay nearly $1 billion to French energy giant TotalEnergies to abandon plans to build offshore wind farms in the Atlantic Ocean off the coasts of New York and North Carolina. The company will instead invest in fossil fuel projects in the US, including a liquified natural gas plant in Texas, oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, and shale oil projects. This deal reimburses TotalEnergies for federal leases purchased under the Biden administration and aims to stop offshore wind projects before they begin. |
