Oilrigs to turbines

In Louisiana, they're rebuilding old oil rigs as platforms for an offshore wind farm. This is about the coolest thing I've heard in years. When do we start doing this in the North Sea? It's not like we haven't got enough dead shipyards.

On a related issue, Lotus seems to be enjoying a new flush of youth as a designer of electric cars. As well as the linked one, don't they build the Tesla chassis as well? See also Tanfield Group of Newcastle.
