Bluepoint Wind is a partnership between Ocean Winds (OW), an international offshore wind energy company created as a 50\/50 joint venture of EDP Renewables and ENGIE, and Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP). Together, these companies have a successful track record of over 50 years of experience in development, financing, construction, and operation of renewable energy projects, including more than 16 years on offshore wind projects. OW develops, builds, and operates offshore wind projects in communities around the world, with a current portfolio of 15 projects across 7 countries.<\/p>\n

Each vessel used by Bluepoint Wind follows strict mitigation measures to protect marine life. Such measures include following seasonal speed restrictions, as well as employing protected species observers (PSOs) on all our survey vessels. PSOs are trained to monitor marine mammals in the area and avoid them during survey campaigns.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Bluepoint Wind is committed to the responsible development of offshore wind and to protecting the health of local ecosystems. Ocean Winds, one of Bluepoint Wind\u2019s parent companies, is also an active member of various technical working groups focused on collaboration with commercial and recreational fisheries across its three projects in the United States.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Recent whale strandings are tragic, but there is no evidence that they are the result of offshore wind activity. Rather, evidence points to vessel strikes and entanglement in fishing gear as the leading factors in most whale deaths in the northeastern United States. The climate crisis is also a significant threat to the well-being of whales and their marine habitats.<\/p>

The Marine Mammal Commission, an independent government agency that oversees the conservation of marine mammals and their environment, said on February 2023 that \u201cthere is no evidence to link these strandings to offshore wind energy development.\u201d The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has also stated that there is no scientific evidence that noise resulting from offshore wind site characterization surveys could potentially cause mortality of whales.<\/p>
