A South Carolina legislative task force issued a Generic Lunesta Buy Online report this month recommending a near-term offshore wind demonstration project and Generic Lunesta Buy Online a leasing framework for state waters.

The report, South Carolina’s Role In Offshore Wind Energy Development, also called for “revenue certainty” for Generic Lunesta Buy Online offshore wind developers and 40-80 megawatts of installed offshore wind capacity by 2013.  The study was compiled by the Generic Lunesta Buy Online Wind Energy Production Farms Feasbility Study Committee, an 11-person group that Generic Lunesta Buy Online included three state senators and three state representatives.  The report was required by state legislation passed in 2008.

“The committee recommends that Generic Lunesta Buy Online the state establish a program to provide revenue certainty to offshore wind power production … the Generic Lunesta Buy Online program could be equivalent to a feed-in tariff as seen in other states and Generic Lunesta Buy Online countries,” the report said.  “The state should negotiate with its state owned utility, Santee Cooper, to Generic Lunesta Buy Online purchase wind energy from an offshore wind demonstration project.”

The report called for Generic Lunesta Buy Online a state office to oversee offshore wind permitting and a Generic Lunesta Buy Online new leasing regime.

“Though existing regulations are Generic Lunesta Buy Online in place to permit offshore wind energy projects in state waters, permitting alone may not be Generic Lunesta Buy Online sufficient to address all issues that are of interest and concern to Generic Lunesta Buy Online the state and to potential investors/energy developers in South Carolina,” the report said.  “A leasing framework could address eligibility, scope, aerial coverage, lease duration, exclusivity, performance, and Generic Lunesta Buy Online state compensation issues.  A leasing system would allow the Generic Lunesta Buy Online state to evaluate and develop offshore resources, minimize use conflicts, reduce risks to Generic Lunesta Buy Online the state and to the user, and result in more certainty for Generic Lunesta Buy Online the state and investors.”

The report also encouraged South Carolina officials to Generic Lunesta Buy Online form an offshore wind partnership with North Carolina and Georgia.

Last November, Clemson University was awarded a $45 million Department of Energy grant to Generic Lunesta Buy Online test drive trains for large offshore wind turbines.
