Sunrise Wind Challenges Lease Suspension Order
On January 7, 2026, Sunrise Wind LLC, a subsidiary of Ørsted, announced its plan to file a complaint in the U.S. District Court. The company challenges a lease suspension order issued by BOEM on December 22, 2025. Sunrise Wind's motion for a preliminary injunction aims to protect the project's interests, claiming the order violates applicable law.
The Sunrise Wind Project is significantly advanced, with 44 of 84 monopile foundations installed and construction nearing 45% completion. Despite its progress and compliance with required permits, the project faces potential delays affecting its expected energy output by October 2026.
The project promises to stabilize the electric grid and provide affordable power to 600,000 homes by 2027. It has generated a substantial economic impact in the U.S., supporting thousands of jobs. The legal action reflects Ørsted's commitment to protecting its investment in renewable energy infrastructure.
