At peak output, the project would generate more than 400 megawatts of electricity, enough to meet the needs of some 400,000 homes on Cape Cod and the nearby islands.

Oh, most of them are rich and wouldn't care as they are vacation homes for the most part. That's not very wide coverage.

But if they are hogging energy that could be diverted elsewhere, that is another matter.

There may be some who manage to live there year-round who might benefit.

As a child I visited Nantucket. Presumably it was more affordale then, lovely, charming place. Kids came out to the boat and dove for coins people threw in the water. I wonder if they still do that. As a parent, I don't think I'd like my kid doing that.
