"No" To Renewable Energy to explain why America is not #1 in wind energy. (Hint: He's a corrupt tool.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ![]() Giant wind turbines dot the sky at sunset near Albacete, central Spain 11/16/03. Spain is the world's second-largest producer of wind power after Germany. The growing renewable energy industry has created thousands of new jobs and the govt. projects wind power capacity will nearly triple by 2011 to help meet demand and reach Kyoto Protocol targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Wind energy is captured through wind turbines that usually consist of three blades which rotate due to the air pressure exerted on them by strong winds which powers an electric generator that can be connected to a local utility grid or used alone.
