Offshore Energy has been formed to examine the feasiblity of constructing a large wind farm off the Gippsland coast in Victoria. Andy Evans and Terry Kallis, the men behind Offshore Energy, believe that wind conditions off Gippsland are similar to those off Denmark, which is regarded as the world leader in offshore wind farms. The $A8 billion wind farm they are contemplating would take around 10 years to build, and would have the capacity to generate enough power for 1.2 million homes.
