Wind power to increase seven-fold next year

There should be a seven-fold increase in the amount of electricity produced by wind power stations in the Czech Republic next year, Stanislav Trávníček of the country’s energy regulation office said at a conference on Tuesday. When output increases from the current 100 gigawatts a year to 700 gigawatts a year in 2009, wind power will account for almost one percent of the electricity produced in the Czech Republic
