The Revolution Wind offshore wind project reached full commercial operations, reducing financial risk for utility Eversource Energy.

Revolution Wind’s milestone is operational rather than a development target. Utility Dive reported that the offshore wind project had reached full commercial operations. Its headline attributes the associated easing of Eversource’s financial risk to the utility’s chief executive.

Eversource’s quarterly earnings nevertheless declined. The supplied article description reports third-quarter income of $346 million, down 22% year over year. It identifies the absence of income from Aquarion, a water-utility subsidiary sold in June, as one contributing factor.

The operational milestone and earnings decline concern distinct developments. The source connects Revolution Wind’s completion with reduced financial risk, while separately explaining part of the earnings decline through Aquarion’s disposal. It does not quantify the remaining wind-related exposure, the amount of risk released, or the project’s generating capacity.
