Avangrid Avangrid Inc. has submitted plans to the Interior Department for the first offshore wind project off the coast of North Carolina, pushing the industry south into hurricane-prone waters. The first phase of the Kitty Hawk offshore wind project would produce 800 megawatts of power from turbines sited 27 miles off of North Carolina’s Outer Banks, a tourist hub. Avangrid, an energy holding company based in Connecticut, is aiming to build as much as 2,500 MW in the lease area between 2021 and 2030. That would be enough electricity to light up 700,000 homes.
