Summary

California is preparing to sue the federal government over a controversial offshore wind lease deal that pays Invenergy $111 million to abandon its Central Coast project — money that must instead be funneled into fossil fuel or geothermal ventures. State officials argue the agreement violates the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act and undermines California’s right to influence clean energy decisions, calling the move illegal and a betrayal of climate goals. With a 60-day deadline looming, Attorney General Rob Bonta warns that using taxpayer funds to kill renewable projects is unacceptable — and the state is ready to go to court if no resolution emerges.
