An Offshore Wind Project Off The Long Island Shoreline That Will ‘Be Built With Union Labor Could Be Exactly What Energy Workers Need’

Jeremy Gantz at Fortune reports on the South Fork Wind Project off Long Island - that’s being backed by Danish Renewable Energy Giant Orsted and the Utility Eversource Energy, which is slated to begin operations in late 2023 - is notable for being built almost entirely with Union Labor, following the terms of a first-of-its-kind National Offshore Wind Agreement signed in May 2022 by Orsted and North America’s Building Trades Unions (NABTU).
