The initial phase would produce 120 MW. A second project phase was approved by Maryland regulators in December 2021 to have an additional 846 MW. Both will be developed together.[9]
WEA
[ edit ]
The project will be built in BOEM -designated Wind Energy Area (WEA) OCS-A 0519,[10] an area of 26,332 acres (10,656 ha )[3] approximately 16.9 nautical miles or 19.5 miles (31.4 km ) off the Delaware coast between Indian River Outlet opposite Fenwick Island , north of the Maryland WEA.
Infrastructure
[ edit ]
Skipjack will use 10 GE Wind Energy Haliade-X 12 MW turbines, 853 feet (260 m ) feet tall with rotors 720 feet (220 m ) long (with blades each 351 feet (107 m ) long), made in Cherbourg, France . The nacelles are also produced in France.[11] [12]
Ørsted U.S. Offshore Wind will partner with Tradepoint Atlantic, based in Port of Baltimore , to develop a logistics center to create a 50-acre staging center for on-land assembly, storage and loading out into deep waters.[13]
The Port of Paulsboro on the Delaware River in New Jersey could become the site for the production the monopile foundations for turbines.[14]
Ørsted proposed using 1.5 acres of land in Fenwick Island State Park in Delaware as a transmission point,[15] but locals opposed park upgrades to be paid for by the project.[6]
ORECs
[ edit ]
The Maryland Public Service Commission has authorized ORECs (offshore wind renewable energy certificates) for both Skipjack and MarWin.[16] [17] [18] ORECs for the second phase were approved in 2021.[9]
Visibility from shore
[ edit ]
Residents and business, particularly in Ocean City, Maryland , have raised concerns about the potential of negative impact of building a wind farm offshore, thus creating a landscape that could affect tourism.[19]
The turbines have changed in size since the initial proposal by the predecessor of Orsted. They will be 853 feet (260 m ) feet tall.[12]
