On March 18, Dong Energy’s Anholt offshore wind farm connected its 36th Siemens 3.6 megawatt (MW) turbine to the electric grid, thereby bringing the total of Denmark's connected offshore wind to 1 gigawatt (1,000 megawatts). This capacity is covers the equivalent of about 1 million Danish households. The Anholt complex itself will include 400 megawatts of capacity when completed. And Denmark has no plans of stopping there, recently announcing that it will invite bids for an additional 1,500 MW of offshore wind. Denmark now gets almost 25% of its electricity from windpower, and this country of 5.5 million in habitants is planning to double that number to 50% by 2020.
