RE - Alternative energy - possible 520 MW from wind in Ireland
(German - needs translation)

They speculate based on measurments that only wind can power the whole Europe.

The North Sea is stormiest and the region around cape Hoorn at the south point of South America. But also the large seas in North America as well as Tasmanien and Australia are ideal locations for a lucrative current harvest. According to findings of Archers and Jacobsons a fraction of the available wind energy available, can produce the requirements of electricity of the earth. They estimated the potential is approximately 72 Terawatt. That corresponds to the achievement of 36,000 modern reactor blocks or 70,000 coal-fired power stations.
