So long as it is well understood how to construct and implement wind farms, this technology can greatly help boost manufacturing productions. Once the initial capital costs are already spent, the cost of generating electricity from wind energy is almost already negligible.
As part of a study on alternative energy solutions and sources, the Department of Energy has proposed to use wind power in generating up to 20% of our total needs. There are more than enough locations to install wind farms within the USA, requiring an approximate investment of $150 Billion a year.
Advocates of the plan suggest that if there is to be a legislation which will mandate local utilities to purchase generated power at regulated rates, it would essentially guarantee demand. As part of the carbon emissions reduction program of any enterprise,there is always enough reason to make this project a priority.
So long as it is well understood how to construct and implement wind farms, this technology can greatly help boost manufacturing productions. Once the initial capital costs are already spent, the cost of generating electricity from wind energy is almost already negligible. It is therefore practical to implement wind farms as long as the demand is guaranteed through mandatory purchases to protect investment costs.
If wind power becomes a big portion of the total markup of energy supply, the price of commodities in the market will be stabilized by the static economic footprint. Those who are against wind energy use plan contend that this source is intermittent and it would be used as wholesale to compensate for such flaw. To make this work, regional distribution grids need to be interconnected in a way that will help level productivity. The possibility, however, of manipulating distribution of generated electricity in a massive national grid is still a subject of study.
Other methods can be used to manage capacity requirements when demand is at peak through appropriate contracting and true implementation of smart grid that could help level off peak periods. It is not possible to account for a downturn in wind generated electricity because of weather conditions, it will be possible to reintroduce semi-mothballed carbon producing facilities of old, depending on the facilities' patterns of economic use.
As the use of fossil fuels continues to rise, carbon emissions reduction becomes a priority concern and enterprise continues to find ways to use alternative energy. Whether or not it is feasible to implement wind energy in wholesale, it is still a significant contributor and would be very feasible as an alternative source of energy.
