Dominion Energy began turbine installation at its 2600MW Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind array over the weekend.
The current status of the work is unknown however, after the Trump administration paused all work on five offshore wind leases Monday.

Dominion’s jack-up vessel Charybdis departed the Portsmouth Marine Terminal in Virginia this past weekend to begin turbine installation, a Dominion spokesperson told reNEWS.
The newly-built jack-up has been stationed in Virginia since September, as workers have resolved a number of issues with the vessel.
The installation campaign will cover 176 14MW Siemens Gamesa turbines at the site, and is expected to run through the end of 2026.
