Google Invests in Mammoth Offshore Wind Farm - chairman - 10-12-2010
google has just sealed a deal that will help bring clean, renewable energy to almost 2 million households.The company is investing in the Atlantic Wind Connection (AWC), a plan to erect a 350-mile stretch of wind turbines 10 to 15 miles off the United States’ Atlantic coastline, where waters are relatively shallow. The AWC “backbone†will take advantage of strong, steady winds at sea and deliver energy via underwater cables.
If successful, the AWC will be the first operating offshore wind collection project in the U.S.
Re: Google Invests in Mammoth Offshore Wind Farm - chairman - 10-12-2010
Calling the AWC “a superhighway for clean energy,†Google’s Green Business Operations Director Rick Needham wrote on the company blog ([img alt=blog width=14 height=14]http://netdna.blippr.com/images/inline-face_05.png?1265851550[/img]), “As those in the Northeast remember from the 2003 blackout, transmission is severely overstretched on the East Coast. The AWC project relieves grid congestion in one of two National Interest Electric Transmission Corridors which were deemed to have significant network congestion and need speedy creation of transmission capacity.â€
The AWC is estimated by outside sources to be a $5 billion project, and Google () has invested 37.5% of the equity for the AWC’s initial development stage, “with the goal of obtaining all the necessary approvals to finance and begin constructing the line,†Needham wrote. New York-based cleantech investment firm Good Energies also invested 37.5% of the equity.
Google has invested heavily in wind energy in the recent past. Earlier this year, the company bought 20 years’ worth of wind energy a couple months later under the newly created auspices of Google Energy.
Google’s commitment to clean energy is impressive, and we also note that its investment strategies make good business sense, as well.
What do you think of this investment and the idea of offshore wind farms?

The wifey dragged me out to see Kazuo Ishiguro's "Never Let Me Go" over the weekend. I am glad she did. I recommend it very highly.
