US Wind is an offshore wind energy development company founded in 2011. US Wind is owned by funds managed by Apollo Global Management, an American investment firm, and Renexia SpA, a subsidiary of Toto Holding SpA. It is headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland. Since 2014, it has been involved in an offshore wind farm project in the United States.
Activities
In 2014 US Wind won the auction for a 25-year leases for both Wind Energy Areas (WEA) in Maryland established by the BOEM with a bid of $8.7 million; OCS-A 0489 (Momentum Wind) was later merged into OCS-A 0490 (MarWin). Development of their project was hindered by the uncertainty of government direction since the state legislature and local governments are considering banning certain areas and increasing the distance from the shoreline for wind turbines. As of the summer of 2016 US Wind had completed underwater surveys of the potential sites about a dozen miles off the coast of Maryland and was submitting plans for environmental review by year end. The project had gained initial approval in 2017 and was reviewed in 2019 when a change in turbine heights was introduced. Studies of the site were begun in April 2021.
The company had also acquired a lease for the New Jersey WEA North, which it later sold. It also pursuing WEA leases in South Carolina.
US Wind has committed to the development of a wind port and steel factory at Tradepoint Atlantic in Sparrows Point, Maryland.
Both phases were approved by Bureau of Ocean Energy Management in September 2024. Onshore construction may begin in 2025 after remaining state permits are received.
