Two energy groups are proposing installing wind turbines in Lake Michigan between Kewaunee and Sheboygan.
Ewindfarm Inc. of California proposes to install 610 turbines one to two miles off the shore between Kewaunee and Kenosha. An additional developer proposes to build “a couple hundred” turbines “within a few miles of shore,” according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
There are no water-based wind projects in the U.S., although wind projects have been proposed off Cape Cod and on Lake Erie in Ohio. Interest in offshore projects is increasing because several Wisconsin counties have passed ordinances restricting wind farm projects.
