Wind may generate 30 pct of electricity by 2030

Wind power could generate almost 30 percent of the world’s electricity by 2030 and is growing faster than any other clean energy source, a wind business group and environmental lobby Greenpeace said on Wednesday.
“At good locations wind can compete with the cost of both coal and gas-fired power,” the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) and Greenpeace said in the study.
