Blue Water Wind

Living in Delaware I'm well aware of the rocketing electric prices over the past 2 years.  Delaware lacks many renewable energy sources and has yet to mandate recycling isn't an option. Having the 200 wind plant's established 12 miles offshore of the coast is a great investment and idea for the future of Delaware citizens. This could help make the energy companies not over price the power supply since there is more of it.  Even though its very costly upfront for the wind farm, if the business grows and does well, it will pay for itself in the long run, saving people along the east money in which power companies could have bumped up prices.  I believe the project will have a little or if any impact on the environment.  Planes, boat traffic, and migratory bird flight will get adjusted to these.  As for looks they will will be to small to see from the beach so beach views will not be ruined.  Even though it was a long process, looks like Delaware is taking a big step ahead in renewable energy.
