ENN: New Record: Wind Powers 40% Of Spain

ENN: New Record: Wind Powers 40% Of Spain: "Wind power is breaking new records in Spain, accounting for just over
40 percent of all electricity consumed during a brief period last
weekend. As heavy winds lashed Spain on Saturday evening wind parks
generated 9,862 megawatts of power which translated to 40.8 percent of
total consumption. Between Friday and Sunday wind power accounted for
an average of 28 percent of all electricity demand in Spain. Spain’s
wind power generation equaled that of hydropower for the first time in
2007."
