Offshore wind was the best way to go here. We're lucky with the North Sea, it's relatively shallow (just up to 40m deep in many areas) and very windy. Turbines are enormous machines now reaching more than 200m high and more than 10MW, and growing, but all are still rather far out it even barely disturbs views from land. I'm sure there's a lot of room to grow offshore wind in gulf of Mexico and east coast. West Coast would be harder I think because deep.
