Global wind power has already crossed the 300 GW mark. Installed capacity now equals the capacity of all power plants in South and Central America! The wind industry provides 650,000 jobs worldwide. Wind power is cheap and ready to go. In Australia, power can be supplied from a new wind farm at a cost of AU$80/MWh, compared to $143/MWh from a new coal plant. EU citizens pay €2 every day for the EU’s fossil fuel imports.
