Abstract
Wind energy is not the energy source that immediately comes to mind when thinking about renewable energy in cities. Few cities have enough space within their area to build large wind farms. You may rather find small wind turbines on suitable locations within the city's area or see cities doing feasibility studies on this subject. The city of Kobenhavn has recently taken part in a large offshore wind farm project, two kilometres from the city's coastline. The project is based on a partnership between the municipality and local shareholders.
