LAFOURCHE PARISH, La. -
Louisiana will soon have its first wind turbine. A lease agreement was approved last month at the Port Commission meeting.
The 187-foot-tall turbine, which will be located at the Port Fourchon Coastal Wetlands Park, and parts for it are currently on the way to the U.S.
“It has always been our desire to become a hub for offshore wind just as we are for deepwater offshore oil and gas activity in the Gulf of Mexico," Gulf Wind Technology executive director Chett Chiasson said. "This wind turbine will serve a crucial role in allowing us to do just that.” (WDSU 01/08/24)
