Closing out this series (I think), below are the top countries in the world* for wind power capacity relative to electricity production**. In other words, these are the countries that have the most wind power compared to their electricity production. This post follows posts on top wind power countries … [continued]
Following up on my post yesterday presenting the top countries in the world for total installed wind power (end of 2011) and newly installed wind power (2011) per capita, below are charts and lists on the top countries* in the world for total installed wind power per GDP and … [continued]
What are the top countries in the world for wind power, per capita? Take a look below! I’ve been meaning to get to this for awhile, but hopefully that means the data have just gotten better since I first intended to put this together. The Global Wind Energy Council … [continued]
