Help From Europe
In the this link - http://www.bluewaterwind.com/experience.htm it shows how Bluewater Wind has been working with similar projects in Denmark. Denmark built their first off shore wind farm in 1991 in the Baltic Sea. These wind farms have proven to be a huge success and Denmark now has seven offshore wind farms with plans for two more with in the next couple years. They have proven that offshore wind farms are not only a possibility, but very effective as well. Many environmental surveys have been done on these wind farms since they have been built and so far the greatest impact has been done during the construction. Since then there has seemed to be very little impact on the environment. The technology used for the Denmark offshore wind farms should be a big help to the Bluewater Wind project. The Blue Water wind project may however face much greater problems then Denmark due to the fact that the Atlantic Ocean differs a great deal then the Baltic Sea.

Wind Power
Blue Water Wind has its word cut out for them. Between the expense of the project and wining over people and companies who are opposed to it, Blue Water Wind has done a great deal in starting the transition to renewable energy. If it works out it will be a huge benefit to our economy and environment in the long run. If it does not work out and generates problems, it will be very problematic for future wind energy projects. Hopefully it will be a successful project and will generate a giant leap into a renewable energy world.
