A Scottish company has successfully tested oscillating aerofoils it says may convert wind to electricity at ground level, as cheaply and efficiently as current wind turbines. (www.katricktechnologies.com)

One of existing wind turbine technology's biggest drawbacks is limitations on location

I'm hopeful floating wind will go through a solar growth.

Once it becomes successful and factories made that can just pump them out on an assembly line things could be different.

But it is a matter of if that is possible and at what point someone is going to built an insanely expensive factory.
