Great Lakes, Great Wind!
|
Cleveland’s own Charles Brush created the world’s first electric wind turbine in the 1800’s. He used it to power his home. And since then, wind turbines have popped up all over the world — but never in the Great Lakes. That could change with Project Icebreaker, a six-turbine demonstration to be located eight to 10 miles off Cleveland’s shore. It could become the country’s second offshore wind farm; the first just started operating in Rhode Island’s waters.
