About The Project
Currently, our efforts are focused on project development work, including engaging with local stakeholders, businesses, and community members, identifying local economic development strategies, engaging with research organizations and maturing supply chain partnerships.
Additionally, Leading Light Wind's inaugural environmental survey program is underway. The program establishes multiple data collections for site characterization and project design. The data enables Leading Light Wind to identify, avoid, and minimize potential impacts to the environment, wildlife, and communities throughout project development, construction, and operations.
Key highlights:
Through robust science and stakeholder engagement, Leading Light Wind is committed to practicing responsible development. To learn more about our commitment to engaging with local and regional fisheries and maritime stakeholders, visit the For Mariners tab.

The proposal outlines an innovative plan to create up to $3 billion in economic development benefits for the Garden State, advance workforce development in partnership with New Jersey labor unions, build the local supply chain, and provide millions in funding for a community benefits program.
