GASTECH-US energy council chief Burgum casts doubt on future of US offshore wind projects

MILAN, Sept 10 (Reuters) - U.S. Interior Secretary and Energy Council Chief Doug Burgum said it is not likely that there will be future offshore wind projects built in the country, and it is not affordable as it is the most expensive source of electricity.

He also said during the Gastech conference in Milan that if there was to be a future for solar power in the United States, panels have to be produced by the U.S. itself, or its allies, and not by China.
