Massachusetts already has a growing wind energy industry. A federally-funded facility where workers will test wind turbine blades is under construction in Charlestown. Vestas Wind Systems, based in Denmark, has a research and development hub in Hudson. And earlier this month, Cape Wind signed an agreement to buy 130 wind turbines from Siemens Energy Inc, which now plans to open a Boston sales office for US offshore wind projects.

Sounds like its gonna eat taxpayer dollars.

It’s a black hole for rate payer and taxpayer dollars. Five miles offshore means expensive deep foundations and an expensive line to shore, plus the maintenance expenses. A nuke plant would make more electricity cheaper per kilowatt.
