Trump Cites National Security Halting US Wind Farm Projects



Trump's (R) Administration has brought U.S. Onshore Wind Development to a Halt, citing National Security concerns.

Approvals for about 165 Onshore Wind Projects on Private Jands are being Held-Up by the Pentagon, citing the American Clean Power Association (ACP) and People Close to the Matter.

The affected Projects include Wind Farms that were awaiting Final Sign-Off, others in the Middle of Negotiations, and some that typically would Not Require Oversight by the Pentagon.

Since 8/2025, Wind Developers have faced a Mix of Setbacks, including a Lack of expected Communication from the Pentagon, Canceled Meetings with No Chance to Reschedule, and being told that Applications are No Longer being Processed.

Letters sent to Developers in Early 4/2026, said the Pentagon was Reviewing its Processes for Evaluating the Impact of Energy Projects on National Security.

The Trump Administration has previously faced Lawsuits, after Pausing Wind Projects, after it cited Mew Classified National Security Risks from Radar Interference.

Wind Developers have faced Repeated Disruptions under Trump, who says Wind Turbines are Ugly, Expensive, and Inefficient. This started when Trump International Golf Links, Scotland had Wind Farms built near the Golf Clubs.
