Skepticism About Wind Power
Although it is generally accepted that for mankind to continue to benefit from energy in the way that it currently does we will need alternative energy sources, there is still some debate about the effectiveness of the methods currently available in reducing our dependency on fossil fuels. This is visible in the fact that there are, as yet, few countries with a viable wind power network.
The green movement worldwide has a fight on its hands to persuade governments and private enterprise that wind power is genuinely the way forward. It is undeniable that there are real benefits to using alternative energy sources, not least the fact that while the world has a finite amount of fossil fuels, there is always going to be a climate.
There will always be wind and there will always be sun. As yet, however, people and companies looking to use these sources are limited in their opportunities.
Unless you are located close enough to a wind-based power station to benefit from the supply that it creates, your only option is to erect your own wind turbine. This depends on you having a constant supply of the correct environmental conditions. A small building in a built-up area may find this difficult because tall buildings have a tendency to block off wind and interfere with the general supply.
Unless governments put their efforts into making alternative energy sources truly viable, there will be difficulties for companies looking to go green. It will cost money, something which is currently in short supply.
