UK renewable energy market economy, President Gordon Edge, said: "Wind turbines produce a total power must depend on any particular time of the wind strength, these figures help to demonstrate wind power generation to become increasingly important that we supply part of. "
He added: "faced with rising fossil fuel prices and climate change, to accelerate the case, obviously, to reduce gas and coal-fired power generation is critical to the UK is the windiest country in Europe, we have a huge wind energy resources in achieving this goal play an important role. "
