This is a huge advancement and win bringing more renewable energy sources to the United States current energy grid. U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar signed off on the 130-turbine, 420-megawatt Cape Wind project just today. “This project fits with the tradition of sustainable development in the area,” Salazar said.
