| ARA5 hours ago Good. I was once at Dhanushkodi, next to Rameshwaram. The road is good. I found wind-speeds high & thought, here is an opportunity to harvest wind-energy more or less round the year. SEE, same kind of an arm of narrow piece of land, jutting into the sea can be man-made. The lengths and breadths of such arms will then provide SOLID BASE to erect wind-turbines that will also provide ease of evacuation, easy approach for M & R of these and can always be EXTENDED, as per needs. ( either on the sides of the strip of artificially created-land-route or, on it, by lengthening it) I observed similar status near Dwaraka too. I MEAN, LIMITLESS- are the opportunities & places for wind-energy generation! |
