The future of wind power

Personally I believe the future in renewables is in production at the point of consumption (solar pannels on roofs or using new solar technologies which utilise solar dyes to make solar windows, paints, etc), no transmition losses, no community opposition to development, incremental capital outlay, diversified exposure to weather conditions, no black outs and absolute energy security. Absolutely the cost is higher but it’s worth it.

Regardless of whether China is a developing nation or not, they have pulled ahead of US on Wind Power Generation, Solar Photovoltaic, and if we don’t start building Nuclear Reactors they will pull ahead of US on that too.

These charts show how windpower contributes to energy contribution around the world by regions. It is interesting to note that while America leads the world in wind energy production, we still have a long way to go in reducing our dependency on non-renewable energy sources.

The Ventera 12kW Hybrid Electric System combines 10 kilowatts from the VT10 wind turbine and 2 kilowatts from solar photovoltaics connected to a dual input VI12 synchronous inverter.

BBP is currently partnered with the Ontario Power Authority to deliver attractive financial incentives for both existing and new buildings in the 416 area code. The BBP – Existing Buildings incentives are tailored to two sectors – multi-family (Multi-family Energy Efficiency Rebates) and institutional (MASH Energy Savings Incentives). The BBP- New Construction incentives apply across both of these sectors as well as new commercial and retail developments.

Finally, country exposure. You will notice that in neither case does the final count come up to 100 – that’s because in both cases only the top ten countries were provided. I’m not sure how much of a difference this makes, seeing as most of the top holdings are global businesses. This breakdown says nothing about the exposure of the underlying businesses to different geographical markets, which is arguably what matters most if you intent to hold the ETF for the medium or long term. Nevertheless, to some, this may be useful info in trying to time an entry point if you have an opinion on where each of these equity markets is headed.

My categories are fairly self-explanatory, save perhaps the distinction between “Park ownership” and “Power gen”. “Park ownership” refers to pure-play wind park and/or renewable power generation asset owners, whereas “Power gen” refers to larger electric utilities with exposure to a wide range of generation fuels.

Investing in securities of small and medium-sized companies may involve greater risk than is customarily associated with investing in large companies.

FAN’s top ten holdings are somewhat more focused on the wind supply chain, whereas PWND has a more exposure to wind park operators. Again, as can be noted, PWND’s positions are appreciably more concentrated than FAN’s, with the top ten holdings making up about 65% of the portfolio Vs. 57% for FAN. Overall, I expect the supply chain to be less impacted by tightness in credit markets than park operators.

Energy transmission is an intra-state as well as an inter-state issue. Given Texas’ abundance of renewable energy resources, it is just as important to consider how to export Texas renewable energy to other states and regions.

Wind Energy Report Summary

The gains that we are seeking require new innovations in fluid dynamics, control, materials, manufacturing, structures, and electric power distribution, as well of new ways of engaging the public in appreciating and accepting this technology, the associated transmission infrastructure and its effects on reducing climate change. Design and analysis tools need to be developed. Common computer codes need to be shared and refined in an open collegial way that cannot occur in industry. Researchers need to disseminate, debate, and share results openly, accelerating innovation in the subject.

Wind energy, in fact, is one of the few bright spots on the job horizon, with the need for hundreds of qualified wind technicians in the next few years in Illinois alone.

As the ‘Golden State’ continues to accelerate its investment in renewable energy technology, wind energy jobs in California are really taking off. With wind farm jobs stretching from Shasta County in the north to Kern and Riverside Counties in the south, employment opportunities in California have never been better. In addition to these existing projects, the state currently has 4 major wind farm developments planned which, when complete, will re-position California as second in the country when ranked according to total installed wind power capacity. To learn more about California wind farm jobs in detail, like those at the Alta Wind Energy Center, click the link below and read our latest industry report. Wind Energy Jobs in California

Wind Energy Technicians will need in-depth knowledge of wind turbines and electrical equipment and electronics; and many applicants complete 1 to 2 years at vocational schools and community colleges, although some less skilled repairers may have only a high school diploma. Job opportunities will be best for applicants with a thorough knowledge of electrical and electronic equipment as well as repair experience.

The funding gives Google and Citigroup a source of long- term revenue that’s ‘better than Treasuries,’ said Amy Grace, North American wind analyst for Bloomberg New Energy Finance in New York. When complete, the California wind farm will be bigger than rival operations in Oregon and Texas.
