Britain lists top 10 green projects of 2005

The British Department of Trade and Industry has named the top 10 new green projects of 2005.

The list includes three wind farms, three solar-power projects, and two examples of microgeneration (mini power plants.) The other projects are a biomass plant in Northern Ireland that produces a new wood pellet bio fuel created by burning sawdust and woodchips, and a wave buoy project off the north Cornwall coast.

Britain has set a goal of generating 10 percent if its electricity from renewable energy by 2010.
