Hecate Energy has proposed a 2 GW fixed-bottom offshore wind project that would consist of up to 133 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 15-23 MW. The company has identified three points of interconnection within Texas and Louisiana and is examining twelve potential landfall locations with paths to three designated substations. Export cables would run separately from each of the two lease areas, or the lease areas would be joined offshore with one substation and one central export cable.
Invenergy’s project would consist of up to 140 wind turbines with expected capacities of more than 15 MW for a total installed capacity of up to 2.5 GW. The turbines would connect to between one and four offshore substations.
