About

Ocean Wind is a proposed 816 MW offshore wind generation project located in Ocean County, New Jersey. The development project, assigned queue ID PJM-AE1-020, is interconnected within the PJM Interconnection queue. The project entered the queue on May 23, 2018, and has a proposed commercial operation date of February 28, 2026. The interconnection agreement (IA) for the project has been executed.

The proposed project is connected to the Oyster Creek 230 kV point of interconnection and is associated with Jersey Central Power & Light (JCPL). Recent news coverage, consisting of 4 articles, has focused on regulatory aspects of the Ocean Wind project. The project's status is currently listed as suspended.

Development Risk

Realization risk from now to commercial operation — financing close, EPC and tax-equity counterparty mix, and COD probability vs the proposed date. The diligence view that determines whether the deal actually closes. Powered by InfraSure's development-stage modeling stack.
