Again, you disregard the energy waste in transfer and maintenance of an offshore wind farm. What you get at the outlet is not the same as what you produce 10 miles out into the ocean on a "OMG ITS NOT WINDY TODAY" day. Your figures are maximum lossless production.

The cost of a nuclear plant is artificially inflated by legislation.

The cost of a wind farm is artificially reduced by legislation.

Wind energy is a fine idea, but don't go skewing the costs and efficiencies with hand picked information.

The transmission lines into shore is quite cheap. So I dont see your point. We already got endless amount of powercables below the sea for country to country connections.

The point is you live in a country that is SEVEN times smaller than my state, which is only the tenth largest in the US. When you have population density and tax rates like Denmark, you can afford to be as inefficient as you like.

What? It's always windy 10 miles offshore. I realize you're making a point, but there's no need to get hyperbolic about it.

Rated down by the nuclear cheerleaders for making a perfectly valid point - get lives, people.
