December 15, 2023
The east coast of New York’s Long Island doesn’t just have some nice beaches. It also produces great wind. David Hardy’s company, Orstead Americas, is bringing that wind to the land with a wind farm.

Hardy tells CBS News that this offshore wind farm will have 12 turbines and generate 132 megawatts of power. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
