China on track to triple its terawatt-scale wind and solar target.
The research arm of American banking giant Goldman Sachs has concluded
that China is currently on track to generate almost three times more power
from wind turbines and solar panels than the government has targeted.
According to a report published by Goldman Sachs in late March, combined
capacity from China’s solar and wind energy sector will reach 3.3
terawatts (TW) by 2030. This far outstrips the Chinese government’s
current target of 1.2TWh. The conclusion from the report is that, with such
an accelerated pace for wind and solar deployment, China could become
energy self-sufficient by 2060.

We have the technology and the natural resources now, in the USA to meet our energyy needs, with just wind, solar, hydroelectric and geothermal energy. All we lack is the political will to do so, because the greedy, profit addicted nuclear, fossil fuel and investor owned electric utilities have bought the votes of our elected leaders of both Parties in Washington and the state houses. Go to the websites of The Solutions Project and the Rocky Mountain Institute, if you think we don’t have the plans, technology, and natural resources to do so. We will not “starve and freeze,” or “wreck our economy,” in the process. Go to http://mobilize.us/ to help organize to bring about a renewable energy economy now.
