New Jersey has set a goal of generating 50% of its energy from renewable sources by the year 2030 – and 100% clean energy by 2050. These projects promise to provide clean electricity to residents as well as high paying jobs in the construction and energy fields.

However, the projects also raise concerns. Opponents have called for wind projects to stop, citing the high number of whales deaths on the East Coast and lack of local input. Some conservationists have raised concerns about the impact on marine life and birds. Some residents say the massive wind turbines will ruin ocean views and affect property values and tourism.  As a result, the topic of offshore wind power has become a highly-charged, political issue.
