Quotes of Note

The Cape Wind Energy Project is an excellent example of what can be done now to make the transition to renewable energy production without further significant environmental costs. It will stand as a model of progress by the U.S. in meeting its global obligations to reduce greenhouse gases and a model of leadership and compromise by the residents of Cape Cod to reduce air pollution.

 		Offshore wind takes pride of place in European energy ambitions
Friday, November 14, 2008
The European Commission has placed offshore wind power at the heart of its plans for the next wave of EU energy legislation.

...It stressed that offshore wind can make a "significant" contribution to all three key objectives of the new energy policy - reducing climate change emissions, improving energy security and industry competitiveness.  The Commission said: "Today, the potential for offshore wind energy is largely untapped: even excluding potential deepwater deployments based on floating foundations, the potential exploitable by 2020 is likely to be some 30-40 times the current installed capacity."
