Google takes a 37.5% stake in the Atlantic Wind Connection, which is creating wind farns off the mid-Atlantic coast – off New Jersey and Delaware.

Richard L. Needham, the director of Google’s green business operations group, called the plan “innovative and audacious.”

“It is an opportunity to kick-start this industry and, long term, provide a way for the mid-Atlantic states to meet their renewable energy goals,” he said.

The first phase would go into operation by 2016, with the entire project fully operational no sooner than 2021.
