Perhaps I am missing something. As far as I am concerned, wind is free, along with waves and ocean bed currents. We do not have to worry about a calm day, for example. The expense must come down if we are to speak about alternative energy from wave, wind and ocean bed currents. Perhaps the infrastructure is expensive but I am sure there is payback in that we would not have to import more fossil fuel, for example, and costs would be minimised.
