(03/08/2017) There is a famous sentence in the movie of Kevin Costner "Fields of Dream": If you build it, he will come. Now Chinese built a lot of wind farm and solar farm harnessing energy from Mother Nature, but nobody comes (from NY Times).
Several key problems in the alternative energy market in China: (1) lack of logistics shipping excess energy to the market of demand, (2) there is no marketplace trading alternative energy (and no clear guidelines for regional governments to work together), and (3) lack of infrastructure.
This video below is made before the dream becomes a reality. (ironic, isn't it?)

Wind Power's Benefits
(4/4/2014) What are the benefits of wind power? According to American Wind Energy Association, "wind power has cut U.S. carbon dioxide emissions by 4.4 percent."
"There are now 61,000 megawatts of wind power installed in the U.S., with turbines in 39 states. Another 12,000 megawatts of wind power are currently under construction, and power projects for which contracts are signed but construction has yet to start are expected to produce another 5,200 megawatts. AWEA says those additional projects should cut another 1 percent of power sector emissions, putting the country closer to the Obama administration's goal of cutting total U.S. emissions 17 percent by 2020."
