BOSTON — Five turbines are fully installed for the Vineyard Wind project and while officials expect power will come online in Massachusetts by the end of the year, the offshore

The first installed US turbine at the 132-GW South Fork wind project off the New York coast has linked power production to the state grid for the first time at a major domestic facility.

Despite some recent financial setbacks, U.S. offshore windpower has hit a milestone. An 800-foot tall turbine is now sending electricity onto the grid from a commercial-scale offshore wind farm on pace to be the country's

Off Long Island, a turbine has begun adding electricity to the U.S. grid from what is likely to be the country's first commercial offshore wind farm.

The first installed turbine at the 132-GW South Fork wind project off the New York coast has now linked energy to the state grid, with first power flow also imminent at the 800-MW Vineyard Wind project off Massachusetts, an executive said.

When completed early next year, the wind farm will be able to generate 132 megawatts of offshore wind energy to power more than 70,000 homes.
