The largest offshore wind farm is nearly complete, can power 1M homes
My local constituency was going to achieve this honour but unfortunately the local MP Robert Syms (known to be somewhat corrupt) killed the project on utterly bullshit grounds (it would barely have affected the view): <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Navitus_Bay_wind_farm" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Navitus_Bay_wind_farm</a><p>As a contrast, it was also reported today that Hinkley point will be £2.9 billion over budget: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bbc.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;business-49823305" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bbc.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;business-49823305</a> luckily for them, they get to charge  £92.50 per megawatt hour upon completion - locked in for 10 years. While wind power is costing us £40 per megawatt hour, not guaranteed, and likely to decrease.
