We all know coal wont last forever and we need new ways to get electricity off shore wind power is one of them it might be a good way to use open water spaces to get electricity using its wind.

The reason it is better than onshore wind power is that offshore wind power tends to be faster then onshore wind power meaning more energy is produced it is twice as much offshore then onshore when it comes to the energy produced the winds also tend to have a more current flow meaning a more reliable source of energy that doesn’t make greenhouse gasses it also will give some people jobs.One wind farm in England will be able to power 1 million homes in the UK with clean energy.Some think offshore wind power could power the whole world.

This relates to engineering because you have make the wind turbines.
