Thank you for sharing this initiative. It is the first time I have heard about this long-term project to develop a promising source of renewable energy. What an amazing opportunity for a budding engineer. As you point out, it sounds like the task of securing enough human talent in Japan is a critical issue. Perhaps Japan could tap into India's legions of engineers.

Despite the fact that a significant amount of capital expenditure is required, while there is no doubt that the planned offshore wind farms sound promising, how does this source of renewable energy compare to the potential of harnessing geothermal energy? See below for reference:
