- A federal judge on Monday cleared Danish offshore wind developer Orsted ORSTED.CO to resume work on its nearly finished Revolution Wind project, which U.S. President Donald Trump's administration halted along with four other projects last month.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth is a legal setback for Trump, who has sought to block expansion of offshore wind in federal waters. Government attorneys had argued that the pause was justified by new, classified information regarding offshore wind's impacts on national security.
