A federal judge has lifted the Trump administration’s stop-work order on Ørsted’s Sunrise Wind offshore project, allowing construction to resume after it was halted over national security concerns tied to military radar interference.
U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth granted Ørsted’s request for a preliminary injunction during a Feb. 2 hearing in Washington, clearing the way for the Danish energy company to restart work on the Sunrise Wind project off the coast of New York while its legal challenge to the government’s order continues.
