"ENERGY: Edison Project Marries Wind Power to Electric Vehicles"

The Danes already generate 20 percent of their power with wind, but plan to boost that to 40 percent by 2020 when they want to have 200,000 all electric cars on the road being charged by wind power. Wind power could be the key to a zero-carbon footprint future. R.C.J.
