Can be noisy. Wind generators
have a reputation for making a
constant, low, "swooshing" noise

countries show an increase of 3.5% increase per year in energy generation compared to
1.2% for OECD countries.

The Indian share in world energy consumption will increase from 19% in 2010 to 28% by
2030. While, there is marked decline for USA share from 21% to 17%. As per the source
of energy consumption patterns, it is the renewal energy which shows a marked
increase of 3% per year while liquid oil, natural gas and coal show only 0.9 % to 1.7%
increase per year. As per the IEA statistics it is still the natural gas and coal which will
account for 60% - 64% of electricity generation in from 2010 through to 2030. It is
estimated that India, China and USA will account for 88% percent increase consumption.
