Wind

We currently own or operate 10 onshore wind assets across seven states, and together they generate enough renewable electricity to power more than 540,000 homes a year. In offshore wind, we’ve joined forces with JERA to create a top-tier global offshore wind joint venture, JERA Nex bp, which owns 100% of the proposed Beacon Wind project in federal waters between Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and Long Island, New York.
