Another German Offshore Wind Park Loses Millions As Installation Costs Soar, Wind Forecast Overestimated

By P Gosselin on 16. January 2018

The online fuldainfo.de here reports of mores woes in the German offshore wind industry. It’s turning out that offshore wind power is expensive, and often plagued by technical difficulties.

Just days ago I wrote here of another recent technical folly suffered by the North Sea Riffgat wind park, where its power transmission underwater cable worked its way out of the seabed to become exposed and thus at risk of becoming ensnarled with anchors or fishing nets.

Big government always appears to be a German strength when it's really their Achilles heel.
