Norway planing enormous sea-based wind parks

Seems like my country is finally doing something good to the environment. According to an article on reuters.com Norway is making plans to build enormous sea-based wind parks that will cost a staggering $44 billion. If everything works out the wind parks should be finished in 2025 and could help the European Union reaching it goal of getting 20 % of its electricity from renewable sources.
The energy produced by the wind parks would be the equivalent to up to eight nuclear power plants so this seems like a massive push for renewable energy sources in Norway.

Wind parks far out on the sea sounds like an excellent idea since the land based wind parks often look very ugly and the construction of the mills can be bad for the local environment. There has also been reports that wind mills along the coastline of Norway are killing a lot birds.
I hope they are thinking about the routes that birds use when they construct the wind parks or else we will get to see many dead sea birds.
