I wonder how much wind energy is being generated in Europe right now Right on. Wind energy generation is close to zero in Germany currently. But also some nuclear power stations have been switched off because the rivers have become too hot (up to 30 °C) and mustn't be used for cooling any more. The winner: solar energy installations, the year-on-year industry revenue growth estimate is +50% for 2003. de.news.yahoo.com

That is why I am leaning toward wave energy and away from wind. It is estimated that a 10mile x 10mile (16km x 16km) area offshore is all that is needed to supply all of California's power needs. Waves subside, but for less of a period than winds.
