Such an effort is necessary if the department is going to reach its goal of growing wind's total share of the U.S. electric supply from about 2 percent to 20 percent by 2030. If that happens, we could "eliminate 7.6 cumulative gigatons of CO2 by 2030 and 825 million metric tons in 2030 and every year thereafter," according to the DOE.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px;
