Trump’s tariffs added $4M to this Virginia wind project in just a few weeks

Dominion Energy says if Trump’s tariffs continue, they could add up to $500 million in costs to its Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project.

Off the coast of Virginia, Dominion Energy is building what will be the largest offshore wind facility in the U.S., a 2.6-gigawatt project that will provide energy to as many as 660,000 homes. It has been under construction since 2023 and is expected to be completed by 2026—but President Donald Trump’s tariffs are adding to the project’s costs.
