GALWAY, IRELAND--August 16, 2013 --Written by Martin Lynch, European News Editor for Industrial Info (Galway, Ireland) Germany's latest offshore windfarm has been completed but faces months of delay before it can be connected to the grid due to the need to clear World War II (WWII) ammunition from the seabed.

The 108-megawatt (MW) Riffgat windfarm located in the German North Sea was officially opened in recent weeks and was expected to start providing power to thousands of homes this month.
