UK Offshore Wind Capacity Rises 80 Percent in One Year


This article from Renewable Energy News is encouraging about the growth of renewable energy, in this case wind energy. For perspective, an average coal-fired power plant's capacity is 500 Megawatts (MW). So the UK just added the equivalent of 3 coal fired power plants in wind turbines in one year.

Seems like a good achievement to me. I hope you will read the article, and make your own conclusions. The other key question is: What is the status in the US and in Delaware? More on that in the future.
