Germany to build offshore wind farms


Posted: 10/29/08

For me Germany is the poster child of alternative energy.  They put forth more effort to wean themselves off of foreign fuels than any other country and have the largest solar cell production.  They also have political parties dedicated to environmentalism, laws set up mandating that city buildings be built to be energy efficient, incentives to build energy efficient homes, etc.

The latest news is that they are building offshore wind farms.  The second news which I have not been able to discover till now is that currently Germany gets 14% of their energy from renewable energies, which is up from 11.5% the year before.  The goal is an ambitious 30% by 2020.
