The wind does not blow continuously, yet there is little overall impact if the wind stops blowing somewhere – it is always blowing somewhere else. Thus, wind can be harnessed to provide reliable electricity even though the wind is not available 100% of the time at one particular site.

In terms of overall power supply, it is largely unimportant what happens when the wind stops blowing at a singlewind turbine or wind farm site."

"Clean, renewable sources of energy like solar, wind, and geothermal can easily be integrated into the nation’s grid. We reduce our carbon footprint and stake a claim to global environmental leadership."
