Broderick said, &quot;and I&#x27;m excited we are now able to show off the first phase of what we hope will be the largest wind farm in the country.&quot;On Tuesday, February 9, 2021 from noon-1p EST, join George Hagerman, senior project scientist at ODU&#x27;s Center for Coastal Physical Oceanography and Lloyd Eley, manager of site construction, Dominion Energy for an in-depth view of the project to-date and what Virginia can look forward to over the horizon.
