Off the southeast quarter of Britain stands a new landmark 1, one of the first great feats 2 of engineering of the 21stcentury. One hundred turbines make Thanet the biggest offshore 3 wind farm in theworld, a site that heralds 4 a new phase in renewable energy. Thanet will boost the UK offshore wind capacity by more than 30%, will be capable of supplying electricity to 200,000 homes. It means wind can now provide at least 4% of the UK’s total electricity consumption, with other renewables providing around 5%. Still though, a long way short of the ambitious targets in place. For the government being forced to make cuts, it’s one sector 5 that's likely to escape unscathed. “What we are determined 6 to do is, by creating more of our own energy within the United Kingdom,to make us safe from the sort of shocks which we have seen in the past in the oil market, the gas market. That’s good news for consumers, it’s good news for businesses, and it’s good news for green growth. ” Out here, seven miles from Ramsgate, that sounds although there’s nobody. And once built, 21people will work here, almost all of them from Kent.
"It is about the future. So going to local sea, the youngsters are the future. The wind farms are the future. And she’s got to have as one.” There’s no doubt the scale of this place is impressive. But in many ways, the UK is playing catch-up with the rest of Europe. The blades here were made in Denmark. The site is operated by a Swedish company. You find the Scandinavians and the Dutch- and particularly the Germans - generate far more of their energy from renewable sources. But we do have one big advantage. Our wind is better, more productive than theirs. The possibilities in this emerging industry go far beyond the Kent coast. Even bigger farms are under construction. The coastal 7 towns and cities that take advantage will be the ones that give their young people new reasons to stay beside the sea.
