Vineyard Offshore and Energy New England partner for clean energy
U.S. offshore wind developer Vineyard Offshore (VO) and municipal light plant cooperative Energy New England (ENE) announced a partnership on Wednesday to explore clean energy options for Massachusetts if the state awards them contracts.

DeSantis, amid criticism, signs Florida bill making climate change a lesser state priority
Climate change will be a lesser priority in Florida and largely disappear from state statutes under legislation signed Wednesday by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis that also bans power-generating wind turbines offshore or near the state's lengthy coastline. Critics said the measure made law by the former Republican presidential hopeful ignores the reality of climate change threats in Florida, including projections of rising seas, extreme heat and flooding and increasingly severe storms. It takes effect July 1 and would also boost expansion of natural gas, reduce regulation on gas pipelines in the state and increase protections against bans on gas appliances such as stoves, according to a news release from the governor's office.
