What if everything you thought you knew about wind energy was wrong? Modern offshore turbines stand 260 metres tall, with blades longer than a Boeing 747`s wings, and need specialist cranes, months of work and massive concrete foundations to build.

In this video we look at three of the most interesting alternatives to the mega-turbine.
