Turning to the world�s two largest carbon emitters, China and the United States, the researchers found that wind power has the potential to easily supply both Large-scale development of wind power in China could allow for close to an 18-fold increase in electricity supply relative to consumption reported for 2005,the researchers write. The bulk of this wind power, 89%, could be derived from onshore installations. The potential for wind power in the U.S. is even greater, 23 times larger than current electricity consumption, the bulk of which, 84%, could be supplied onshore.

At least Germany is wising up and dumping their support. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
