A U.S. federal judge in Virginia has delayed Dominion Energy’s bid to quickly restart offshore construction on its Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, as the court seeks access to classified material the Trump administration says underpins its stop-work order. The next hearing is set for Jan. 16, after the judge directed the government to submit the classified information to the court by Jan. 9 and to say by Dec. 31 whether it would share that material with Dominion’s security-cleared lawyers.

COPENHAGEN — Ørsted A/S stock is back in the spotlight on December 23, 2025, after the U.S. government paused leases and issued stop-work orders for five major offshore wind projects under construction along the East Coast—an unusually aggressive move that hits Ørsted’s U.S. growth story right where it’s most vulnerable: late-stage projects with big capital already in the water.
