Above the waves, the turbines do what they were built to do: generate renewable electricity.

Above the waves, the turbines do what they were built to do: generate renewable electricity. Below the surface, they are also “producing” life.
Fish, oysters, and other marine species are beginning to return, turning energy infrastructure into living reef-like environments. What started as a clean energy project is now quietly supporting marine recovery.
In the North Sea, renewable power is no longer just reducing emissions....

Knowing this, I'm wondering if these offshore wind turbines couldn't be anchored with even more substantial structures that invite these little artificial reefs.

@Remittancegirl yes, some are actively pursuing that in my native Caribbean region and many other parts of the world:
