I don't believe there is any money in the budget for this purpose.

Trump is not king. The Congress is supposed to make appropriations.

I'm guessing power companies have already contracted for power from these wind projects at prices lower than fossil fueled prices. I would think those companies would have standing to sue Trump for illegal expenditures. Yes, I know, a pink pig may fly through my living room any minute now. It's a thought.
