Australia: New 3 Gw Of Wind Record

May 11 2015 07:35 PM | eds in Wind Power
Australia has excellent wind power potential, especially in some of the coastal areas.
. . . A study found that it could generate about 30% of its electricity from wind by 2025,
. . . if it maintained the pace of installing new turbines.
Currently, most electricity there is generated by burning coal and natural gas.
It has been reported that new wind power and solar facilities can be built,
. . . cheaper than new coal, or gas power plants in Australia.
When the energy storage industry catches up to wind power,
. . . there will not be any reason to resist either one of them.
Costs are within reach, and energy storage will mean,
. . . there will be a way to accumulate electricity,
. . . for use when winds don't blow, and the sun don't shine.
