Wind Turbine Technicians are in for a steady stream of opportunity…

According to the US Department of Energy, The US leads the world in amount of energy generated by wind turbines:

• US                  35,000 MW
• Germany     25,000MW
• China            25,000 MW

But the best news? The goals of the US Department of Energy are for wind energy to generate 20% of all US energy by 2030.

WOW! What a great goal!!

Right now, the total world wind capacity is approaching 158,000 MW….  That is great! I love that wind has so much potential for the future.

I am looking forward to the day I can  purchase a Wind Powered Car!
