Canary Island first to be powered by just wind and water

The article is about a pioneer project of the EU on the Canary Islands. 
They installed wind and water turbines in order to get only power from them for the whole Island. 

The project starts to work in summer 2014 and costs around 54m€. They also want to install solar panels for heating and change petrol cars for electric cars.

I think that this is a good project because the common natural resources are getting lower and we need to change “our chip” in order to take profit from natural energy like wind, water and sun – at least in the countries where it is possible.

The Alt Empordà would be a good candidate for this project because in our zone we have plenty of sunshine and wind. Maybe somebody should think about it.
