WIND POWER

• Low emissions: Reduces smog and eliminates a major source of acid rain. Could reduce total US emissions of carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) by 1/3, and world emissions by 4%.

• An inexhaustible resource: 46 of 50 states have wind resources that could be developed.

• Contributes to healthier air: especially important for people with respiratory disabilities.

• Potential for growth: Development of just 10% of 10 of the windiest states could provide more than enough energy to displace emissions from coal-fired power plants.

Economical Benefits:

• 30% Federal Tax Credit, plus state rebates and incentives are available.

• Saves on Electric Bills

• Unused power can be sold back to the electrical utility company
