The world’s largest wind farm off the coast of British
Thanet is a wind farm located 12 miles off the coast of England, With 100 wind turbines each with a production capacity of three megawatts, the park was located at sea to establish itself as the largest facility of its kind in the world.
The new wind power project is implemented after the national government to manifest the desire to create, by 2020, 15 percent of electricity from clean sources.
As explained from Thuggery, creating the park 32 km2 has been developing since 2008 and required an investment of approximately 1.4 billion dollars.
While there are facilities located on land with higher production volume, offshore wind farms have the advantage of having more wind and have a higher yield. For all the benefits that this brings, it is essential that the change is tipping toward this type of production. Consider ways cleaner and more environmentally friendly is a key point in the fight against climate change.
Spain became a leader in solar energy
China, which enjoys an incredible global financial assets that ranked as the world’s second largest economy. Or in continental terms, European is what develops further action and investment in clean energy. However, even in crisis, Spain has managed to sign up as a reference in the matter, because today is a leader in solar energy.
After a hard work and by good growth policies, Spain surpassed the United States became the world’s largest producer of solar thermal energy, creating an installed capacity of 432 megawatts (MW), 10 more than Americans.
The achievement was made possible due to the thermal plant “Florida” in Badajoz, most other plants that produce record capability on the mainland. Among all plants make up a territory in excess of 550,000 square meters to capture solar energy has been become the largest in the world among the plants in operation.
Inevitably, the world’s leading nations have begun to invest and set plans in renewable energy. The oil reserves are not eternal and an estimated remaining oil for thirty years at peak production and then begins to decrease. That is why new renewable energy sources are the main stake in Spain, has started positively.
The solar energy is produced through the use of the sun’s energy for heat and for the production of mechanical energy and then electric.
