New R.I. Wind Farm plan...

Not sure if this is in the Mainstrem news or not...

After scrapping plans for an offshore wind project in Rhode Island Sound, Deepwater Wind LLC has returned with plans for a much larger project in the sound that would more than double the power output from Cape Wind.

New Jersey-based Deepwater Wind says the project, dubbed the Deepwater Wind Energy Center, would contain up to 200 wind turbines and would produce 1,000 megawatts of power — easily making it the largest in the nation if built.

By comparison, Cape Wind, proposed for Nantucket Sound, would consist of 130 turbines that would generate 468 megawatts of electricity.
