Up to 7,000 wind turbines will be installed off the English coast under plans announced by the government on Monday to power every home in Britain with wind-generated electricity by 2020.
"The draft plan I'm setting out today could allow companies to develop 25 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2020, in addition to the eight gigawatts already planned," Energy Secretary John Hutton said in a statement.
The combined 33 gigawatts would produce enough electricity to power 25 million homes.
