March 28, 2025 — Another proposed offshore wind farm in New Jersey is hitting some turbulence.
Attentive Energy is asking the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities to grant it a one-year delay in making $37.3 million worth of payments the state mandated as part of its preliminary approval for the project.
It has preliminary approval for a wind farm 42 miles off Seaside Heights that would power more than 650,000 homes.
The board was scheduled to consider the request during a meeting last week but removed it from the agenda shortly before the meeting began without listing a reason for the move.
A board spokeswoman said Thursday it is unclear when the request will be considered. Its next meeting is April 23.
