windfarm

There's a proposal to build a 350-turbine windfarm about 15 miles off Devon which could power 53% of the southwest's homes and offset 2.3 million tonnes of C02 emissions. New planning policies, previous successes and the developer's inclusion of plenty of environmental research (RSPB and Friends of the Earth are happy) makes it sound damn good to me. Am writing a news piece for CARVE on it.

It seems so win-win, and avoids so much of the Wave Hub type 'loss of swell' fuss.
