We will now start utilising offshore wind energy and aim to achieve 3,000 MW offshore by 2010. We owe this rapid development primarily to the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG): It guarantees for 20 years a specified minimum fee for electricity from renewable energies. It commits grid operators to the priority purchase of electricity from renewables and the . . .
