8月28日（路透社）——加州周五起诉特朗普政府及一家海上风电开发商，缘由是后者达成一项协议，取消该州中海岸一处拟建项目，以换取1.2亿美元联邦补偿金，并承诺投资化石燃料项目。

加利福尼亚州总检察长罗布·邦塔在加州北部地区美国联邦地区法院提起诉讼，被告为美国内政部和金州风力公司，指控这项4月达成的协议违反联邦法律，应宣布无效。
加州方面表示，内政部非法使用1.2亿美元纳税人资金，为金州风力公司放弃其在2022年联邦拍卖中购得的海上风电租赁权提供补偿。金州风力公司是由法国能源集团ENGIE（巴黎证券交易所代码：ENGIE.PA，打开新标签页）与葡萄牙EDP可再生能源公司（伦敦证券交易所代码：EDPR.LS，打开新标签页）的合资企业Ocean Winds，以及伦敦离岸风电投资公司Reventus Power组建的合资企业。
根据起诉书，金州风力公司原本计划在加州中海岸附近建设一座2吉瓦的漂浮式海上风电项目，并已承诺投入逾3000万美元用于劳动力培训、供应链发展和社区福利项目。
加州称，此次项目取消威胁到数千个就业岗位，以及该州与海上风电开发相关的逾1亿美元投资，其中包括港口升级、输电规划和供应链项目。
诉讼指控该协议违反《外大陆架土地法》和联邦《判决基金法》，原因是这笔付款未与实际诉讼挂钩。
内政部发言人表示，该机构不会对正在进行的诉讼置评，但称该协议已获司法部批准，并通过了适当程序。
加州最早于6月就威胁提起诉讼，称此次租赁收购可能使该州海上风电行业倒退数年，并破坏其到2045年开发25吉瓦海上风电装机容量的计划。
特朗普政府已与道达尔能源（巴黎证券交易所代码：TTEF.PA，打开新标签页）和Invenergy等其他海上风电开发商达成类似协议，要求这些企业投资传统能源项目，以换取终止海上风电租赁协议。

California sues Trump administration over offshore wind lease cancelation

Aug 28 (Reuters) – California on Friday sued the Trump administration and an offshore wind developer over a deal that canceled a planned project off the state’s Central Coast in exchange for a $120 million federal reimbursement and a commitment to invest in fossil fuel projects.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the northern district of California against the U.S. Department of the Interior and Golden State Wind, arguing the April agreement violated federal law and should be invalidated.
The state said Interior unlawfully used $120 million in taxpayer funds to reimburse Golden State Wind for relinquishing an offshore wind lease it purchased in a 2022 federal auction. Golden State Wind is a joint venture between Ocean Winds, a partnership between France’s ENGIE
(ENGIE.PA), opens new tab
and Portugal’s EDP Renewables
(EDPR.LS), opens new tab
, and Reventus Power, a London-based offshore wind investment firm.
Golden State Wind was planning a 2-gigawatt floating offshore wind project off California’s central coast and had pledged more than $30 million for workforce training, supply-chain development and community benefits, according to the complaint.
California said the cancellation threatens thousands of jobs and more than $100 million in state investments tied to offshore wind development, including port upgrades, transmission planning and supply-chain projects.
The lawsuit alleges the agreement violates the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act and the federal Judgment Fund Act because the payment was not tied to an actual lawsuit.
An Interior Department spokesperson said the agency would not comment on ongoing litigation, but said the agreement was approved by the Department of Justice and went through appropriate channels.
California first threatened the lawsuit in June, saying the lease buyout could set back the state’s offshore wind industry by years and undermine plans to develop 25 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity by 2045.
The Trump administration has reached similar agreements with other offshore wind developers, including TotalEnergies
(TTEF.PA), opens new tab
and Invenergy, requiring investments in conventional energy projects in exchange for terminating offshore wind leases.
Ocean Winds was not immediately available for comment.
