We’re investing £64m to transform Port Talbot into Wales' first floating offshore wind hub.
That means 5,000 good jobs, £500m of investment and enough clean power for 6.5m homes.
We are putting Wales at the heart of our clean energy superpower mission.

Heaven forbid they drill in the North Sea and bring down the cost of oil/petrol/gas which is now the most expensive in the Western world?
This guy is the "Energy" secretary.....
Greta T. screaming “HOW DARE YOU kill innocent sea birds” in 5..4..3..2...
This should keep them from complaining about the cost of oil.
What do you call an investment that loses money? Government Subsidized.
Sooner or later this kind of mis-investment will cause periodic blackouts
Won’t it float away?
Yes i Hate that word and they’ve been using it for 20-30 years to justify the spending
It's basically down to if the greenies can destroy UK's grid faster than the Muslims can take over and bring more sense to energy policies, at least to the believing citizens.
1995. Japan made a choice to go analog while the rest of the world went digital. You gotta figure they know what they’re doing.
“enough clean power for 6.5m homes”
When the winds blowing anyway, and not too hard.
Yes the grid is tapped and they’re doing stuff like this 😅😅Oh well..
The greens have aligned with the muslims now to get votes.
Windmills are expensive and boats are expensive to maintain. Let’s put them together.
They should Search the internet first about these disasters before they waste taxpayer money ,LOL
For onshore installations windmills need a concrete base of about 425 TONS, so impossible to build a functional floating windmill farm

Can’t fix stupid.
