I doubt it. It sounds like another money laundering scheme like Solyndra. Billions go out but very little gets actually produced. Most of the money goes into “studies” and “overhead”, which means that ex and current politicians’ family members and former high-ranking bureaucrats get huge salaries for no-show jobs as “consultants”.

Can you say Solyndra? How long until they default on the loans leaving the taxpayers holding the bag for that and the hazmat clean up when they abandon the facility?

You’re prescient and more...

“The authors even declared that 78,000 turbines 90 meters high placed off the coast of New Orleans could have reduced Hurricane Katrina’s wind speeds by as much as 158 km per hour by the time they reached land. And they go on: 100,000 turbines located between New York and Washington, D.C., could have weakened the winds of hurricane Sandy by up to 140km/h and reduced storm surge by 34 per cent. It is not without mentioning the financial benefits of producing huge amounts of clean energy.”
