The British Department of Trade and Industry has named the top 10 new green projects of 2005.

The list includes three wind farms, three solar-power projects, and two examples of microgeneration (mini power plants.) The other projects are a biomass plant in Northern Ireland that produces a new wood pellet bio fuel created by burning sawdust and woodchips, and a wave buoy project off the north Cornwall coast.

Britain has set a goal of generating 10 percent if its electricity from renewable energy by 2010.
