Wind power has taken off and is on target to supply 12 per cent of the world’s electricity by 2020.
Pacific Hydro currently boasts more than 800MW of potential wind developments in Australia, and by 2011, we plan to have installed 300MW of new wind farms.
Internationally, the Brazilian wind market is booming, and we’re perfectly positioned to capture significant opportunities with up to 300MW of potential wind farm developments in the pipeline.
