Analyzing the Wind Power Industry in Canada
In the foreseeable future wind energy is expected to cover a large share of the electricity needs worldwide: Wind energy is practically inexhaustible as well as available almost everywhere and wind energy investment is a low-risk investment. The cost of electricity generation is stable over the lifetime of a wind turbine and there are no fluctuating fuel costs – and the access to wind cannot be restricted by third parties. Wind power net capacity additions over the last ten years (1998-2007) have showed a mean growth rate of 30.4 percent per year, corresponding to a doubling of net additions every 2? years.
Wind energy is today the best panacea for the three current crises - energy, finance and climate.
Aruvian's R'search’s report, Analyzing the Wind Power Industry in Canada, is a complete analysis of the wind energy industry in Canada. The report analyzes the present global and regional market scenario, the prevalent wind resources in this continent, governmental policies, future projections, detailed analysis of the leading states/province and much more.
The report is a highly comprehensive research compilation of the booming wind power industry in Canada. The report also provides a look at the overall North American energy industry and a brief profile of the global wind power industry as well.
The report, Analyzing the Wind Power Industry in Canada, explores the importance of wind power in today’s world. The report looks at the basics of the wind energy industry, economics, issues and barriers, and other such factors.
