The move, backed by 16 states, reverses a 2025 freeze that halted new leases and blocked Pentagon-approval projects nationwide. A key controversy centers on a San Luis Obispo project, where a company reportedly received a taxpayer-funded buyout citing national security—now under scrutiny. Despite past hurdles, California’s wind farms are gearing up for community meetings and aim to start construction by 2027, with full power expected by the mid-2030s.
