Japanese plan to build a Wind Farm on the Baltic Sea near Denmark. This was confirmed by the officials who stated that the Wind farm would be built ten kilometers off the shore of Fukushima . This is the same place where the Earthquake with and intensity of 9.0 and a subsequent Tsunami struck Japan in 2011. The Japanese have sworn to replace Nuclear energy with Renewable energy. The Tsunami which took the life of millions was the biggest natural disaster ever to befall the Eastern shores. 

The most amazing fact is the attitude of the Japanese in the face of disaster. Having crippled back to normalcy the Japanese after the Tsunami have managed to reconstruct their economy and with an attitude change are finally making strides in sustainable development. They have our utmost respect. Having accepted that Nuclear energy poses great dangers and is a formidable source of uncontrollable energy the Japanese have decided that wind and Solar power will take them forth. 

The wind farm in question is the largest that will be built in the world.This new farm planned for Japan is expected to produce 1 gigawatt using just 143 turbines. The turbines will be placed on floating steel platforms which will be anchored to the ocean floor on the continental shelf. They will be kept upright and will be 200 meters high with a 200 megawatt capacity. The construction of this amazing wind farm will be completed in 2020. The Japanese have plans on becoming completely self reliant and energy independent from fossil fuels and nuclear energy by 2040. 

So great is the need and the ambition to adopt renewable energy that in addition to the wind farm, plans are also being drawn up for the biggest solar farm in the country.
