Aukahi Energy seeks approval for floating offshore wind farm in Hawaii

Aukahi Energy, a partnership between Progression Energy and EDF Renewables North America, is seeking approval to build floating offshore wind turbines north of the Kaiwi Channel, near Makapuu Point in Hawaii.

 

The company will conduct extensive studies to assess the project's impact on marine mammals, fishing, and cultural implications. If approved, the project would generate enough clean electricity to power approximately 300,000 homes and is expected to be operational by 2035.
