Brooklyn Borough President and New York City mayoral candidate Eric Adams released his plan on Wednesday to turn New York City into the wind power hub of the Northeast, calling the emerging industry “a tailwind for our new economy”.
Adams’ plan includes leveraging waterfront assets like the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal, the Red Hook Container Terminal, the Staten Island waterfront, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and others to take advantage of new federal funding announced last week so that New York can design, construct and ship the components necessary to build wind farms in the region. And Adams specifically called for approval of the proposed Arthur Kill wind power facility in Staten Island.
