Hi,

I got a correction from Guy Dauncey -- all his numbers were missing three zeros: 120,000 TWh/year total, and the wind power number should be 210,000 TWh/year. He thanked me for catching it -- so the credit goes to you!

The bottom line is the same: there is a huge excess of renewable power sources available, and we just need to start to use them more; eventually we should use them for 100% of our needs.

I would think that wind would be a good possibility for Saskatchewan, similar to the upper midwest of the USA and to Denmark.
