New York said its latest offshore wind solicitation drew more than 100 proposals from six developers for eight new projects — a record level of response.

Developers bid a total $757 million, or $2,039/acre, for five leases in two wind energy areas off California in the first West Coast offshore wind auction.

RWE Renewables Americas will acquire Con Edison Clean Energy Businesses in a deal valued at $6.8 billion.

Jordan Shoesmith of Copenhagen Offshore Partners said that available public funding can deliver a supply chain “to last for generations.”

Members praised work done by PJM in the stakeholder process in the development of new rules for the interconnection process.

Reversing course, FERC said PJM did not have to pay an Illinois wind farm $10 million in incremental capacity transfer rights for delivery year 2019/20.
