The Tiny Islands at the Heart of Germany's Offshore Wind Boom

An industrial revolution is sweeping over Heligoland, a tiny German North Sea archipelago once annexed by the British, and a haven for bird watchers until the wind farmers moved in two years ago. Windfarms at Heligoland are now producing enough power to serve 900,000 households for as long as 25 years. Wind turbines operate at Nordsee Ost wind farm. Photo credit: Krisztian Bocsi/Bloomberg
