Letter Notes UMaine Wind Power Research

A letter to the editor in New Hampshire’s Hampton Union newspaper about the topic of nuclear power plants mentioned UMaine’s research into the potential for deepwater offshore wind energy. The letter argued that wind turbines in the Gulf of Maine might make unnecessary the restart of a nuclear reactor in New Hampshire. UMaine’s AEWC Advanced Structures and Composites Center is researching deepwater offshore wind energy.
