In an ambitious scheme than even industry proponents seem skeptical of, Britain has unveiled plans to power every home in the country via off-shore wind farms by the year 2020. For your town (no matter where you are), will you think you will enjoy cheap wind power by 2010?

    I would love to... but wind power is actually not readily available in a lot of places...

    Besides, British Columbia actually has one of the cleanest way of producing electricity with hydro-electricity. It's the rest of Canada and many other countries that need to go greener with their electricity generation. :p

    My current energy provider uses 100% renewable energy...
    I'd rather have a bunch of solar panels on my roof though, but that's still too expensive!

      Solar panel conversion ratio is too low huh? I have seen them in local hardware stores. But too lazy to buy them and set them up.

    Well.. suppose we already have technology to support this. But I don't think government will let this happens ... it will have great impact to those big corps which paying hugh amount of tax to government

    i am pro wind-power. it's relatively low tech and clean, but it still may not support every single house in my country.
