Vineyard Wind CEO sees both New London and Bridgeport as viable wind hubs

Vineyard Wind, which has two leases in waters south of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket, wants to transform Barnum Landing, an underused part of Bridgeport Harbor, into a manufacturing and staging facility for the offshore wind industry, and later into a long-term hub for workers servicing the turbines, which have a life cycle of 25 to 30 years. While Vineyard Wind is in competition with Ørsted and Eversource on getting the contract with the state, Pedersen said both New London and Bridgeport could be developed into offshore wind hubs.
