Dominion Energy launches first US flag vessel, Charybdis, for $9bn offshore wind project in Virginia.

Dominion Energy launched the first US flag vessel, Charybdis, to install giant wind turbines as part of its $9bn offshore wind project off Virginia Beach. The 472-foot vessel is vital for the growth of the offshore wind industry along the US East Coast and is expected to make Virginia a center for offshore wind. Dominion's project is anticipated to be online by 2026, generating enough electricity to power up to 660,000 homes.
