SouthCoast Wind 是壳牌和 Ocean Winds 之间 50:50 的合资企业，成立的目的是开发马萨诸塞州海岸的海上风电项目。

“根据我们的“推动进步”战略，壳牌继续在我们拥有优势地位的关键市场磨练我们的可再生能源发电项目组合，”壳牌能源美洲区高级副总裁 Glenn Wright 表示。 “我们感谢 Ocean Winds 多年来在该企业中的合作伙伴关系，并将继续寻求机会提供更多能源，同时减少排放。”

SouthCoast Wind 正在美国联邦水域开发一座拟议的海上风电场，位于玛莎葡萄园以南约 30 英里、马萨诸塞州楠塔基特以南 23 英里，通过租赁 OCS-A 0521 发电容量约为 2,400 兆瓦，占地 127,388 英亩。该合资企业成立于 2018 年，前身为 Mayflower Wind Energy LLC。

美国是壳牌的一个重要市场，该公司在 50 个州开展业务，拥有超过 12,000 名员工，致力于提供当今安全的能源供应，同时应对未来的能源挑战。

这一公告是在壳牌最近发布的能源转型战略之后发布的，该战略中该公司透露，其 减少减排目标 是为了提高股东的价值。然而，壳牌仍然坚持到 2050 年成为净零排放公司的雄心。
