Global offshore wind developer Corio Generation and its partner TotalEnergies announce that their Attentive Energy Two offshore wind project has been selected to supply renewable electricity to the state of New Jersey. The decision by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) gives Attentive Energy Two a 20 year contract to sell a vital 1.34 GW of renewable offshore wind-generated energy into the Garden State.

The Attentive Energy Two project has the potential to deliver power to some 650,000 homes and generate potentially billions of dollars in economic activity state-wide, creating lasting opportunities in all 21 counties of New Jersey. The BPU’s selected bid provides a path for Attentive Energy Two to invest some $105 million in local communities, building on Corio’s legacy of supporting projects that create jobs, prioritise biodiversity, and provide financial opportunity for ratepayers and project developers. The wind farm is expected to be commissioned in 2031.

The decision by the BPU comes several months after the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) selected the nearby 1.4 GW Attentive Energy One project, a joint venture between Corio, TotalEnergies and Rise Light and Power, for a provisional 25 year award in October 2023. Both Attentive Energy projects are on seabed lease OCS-A 0538, a site secured by TotalEnergies in the February 2022 New York Bight Auction.

Attentive Energy Two is a joint venture between Corio and TotalEnergies, another example of the two companies’ global partnership to advance renewable energy at utility scale with existing projects from the United Kingdom to Taiwan.
Corio’s shareholding in Attentive Energy is supported by its investment partner Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board
