Here's some good news for New Yorkers who are tired of West NY getting attention for their (amazing) wind farms.
The New York Power Authority (NYPA) has applied to develop an off shore wind farm 24km off the coast of Long Island that would begin pumping 300 MW of energy into the region, but whose capacity would be 700 MW (to be achieved by 2016).
According to Newsday (subscription required), the project comes with a price tag of about $1.5 billion.
Not really a bad investment for the potential returns involved. I'm glad to see this moving forward without too much controversy... (I'm looking with with disdain in your general direction, Cape Cod).

Well it is really good news in setting up this wind farm to be efficiently running and saving the environment in giving energy.I know that the cost of this project is very big but the outcome with the environment and the utilization will be rewarded in the future.
