    RWE said that it will now reinvest the sum into conventional gas projects, including $900m (£669m) in a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal project in Louisiana.

      Yes, which is not what you said before. RWE is getting paid for nothing to then invest its own money in other projects. The difference is ownership. The difference matters.

        From what I can tell, RWE would have owned the wind projects before as well.

        RWE said it has agreed to relinquish its leases off the California and Louisiana coasts as well as in the New York Bight.

        They wouldn’t need to relinquish leases if the US was the owner and RWE was simply a contractor building stuff for them.
