While Trump travels the world calling wind turbines a “con job”, Germany and Denmark agrees on a massive wind park near the island of Bornholm.

The park will produce the power for 3 million households across both countries — the equivalent of delivering clean energy to all of Rome.

The US may control the operating systems in our phones, but it looks like Europe will control the future of green energy.

@randahl why do we do this in the Baltic sea and at the same time open up a gas field with the Netherlands off Borkum? That's insane!

@torgeros

I don't know if there's a specific connection but increases in wind power must be met with increases in either nuclear, hydro, fossil plants or - batteries. Very large buildouts of batteries.

Currently Swedish hydro and nuclear is why Denmark can rely so heavily on wind as they do - but we're pretty much maxed out.

@randahl with alternatives like the fairphone with a de-googled operating system, they do not even control that part :)
