Description: On Jan. 12, 2022, Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland <a href="https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/interior-department-announces-historic-wind-energy-auction-offshore-new-york-and-new" target="_blank">announced</a> that BOEM will hold a wind energy auction on Feb. 23, 2022, for more than 480,000 acres in the New York Bight. This will be the first offshore wind energy auction under the Biden-Harris Administration. The auction will allow offshore wind developers to bid on six lease areas – the most areas ever offered in a single auction – as described in BOEM’s <a href="https://www.boem.gov/sites/default/files/documents/renewable-energy/state-activities/87-FR-2446_0.pdf" target="_blank">Final Sale Notice</a>. Leases offered in this sale could result in 5.6 to 7 gigawatts of offshore wind energy, enough to power nearly 2 million homes. As offshore wind technology continues to advance, these areas may have the potential to produce even more clean energy. On January 19, BOEM hosted the fifth and final meeting on the New York Bight leasing process targeted towards the fisheries community. The purpose of this meeting was to describe how BOEM arrived at the Final Lease Areas, provide an overview of the feedback received and how BOEM has responded.
