Vineyard Wind has resumed turbine blade installation on its offshore wind farm, marking the first such activity since a blade broke off earlier this year. Vineyard Wind and government officials confirmed that the work commenced on Saturday, and three blades were successfully installed over the weekend.
The resumption follows a five-month hiatus after a catastrophic blade failure in July scattered thousands of debris pieces into the ocean. The development signifies a critical step forward for the 62-turbine wind farm located 14 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard.
