This dataset provides detailed geospatial and tabular data on wind energy development, including lease areas, planning areas, marine hydrokinetic leases, project phase areas, and infrastructure components such as turbines, substations, and cable systems (<a href="#tbl-wind-usa-classification" class="quarto-xref">Table&nbsp;<span>4.4</span></a>). Each entry in the dataset is accompanied with a lease or protraction number (see <a href="#tbl-wind-usa-number" class="quarto-xref">Table&nbsp;<span>4.5</span></a>). The dataset supports decision-making and analysis for renewable energy development by offering comprehensive coverage of offshore wind projects. Access to the data requires a ArcGIS online membership. Data were therefore harvested and stored on a secure Google Cloud Storage bucket accessible through an authentication key and maintained by inSileco.</p>
