Renewable Energy in Antarctica: a Green Option for a White Continent
Excerpt:
"In October 2007 Meridian Energy, one of New Zealand’s principal electricity providers, carried out feasibility studies for the installation of wind turbines in the world’s windiest continent. The turbines would provide power to New Zealand’s Scott Base and possibly neighbouring U.S. McMurdo Station. Meridian Energy has found the proposed locations have less extreme wind speeds than some areas around Wellington, the New Zealand’s notoriously windy capital city, where wind farms have been established."
