Renewable energy groups are suing the US military because they say national security reviews for new wind farms on private land have been effectively frozen for months.
The groups say this logjam jeopardises US$47 billion in investments and thousands of jobs in 21 states.
President Donald Trump has frequently talked about his hatred of wind power and calls turbines ugly. Currently, about 10 per cent of the electricity generated in the United States comes from wind farms, making it the nation's largest source of renewable energy. Solar is the fastest-growing.
