Managing Growth in Wind Energy Production

Abstract: The Energy Information Agency predicts that in the next 25 years, wind energy capacity in the U.S. will grow by 300%. This paper will address some of the main issues affecting the growth in wind energy production in the U.S. and Michigan including regulatory issues, environmental concerns, and technological barriers. In keeping with a local environmental planning context, most of the focus will be on environmental concerns, including concerns over public safety and welfare, with many references to local policies and regulations. A discussion of wind energy production is certainly apropos as policy-makers are recognizing the problems associated with current methods of energy production.<---Click to Read Full Article

The Personal Benefits of the Hydrogen Economy for the Average Driver
