Investing in Wind Energy: When Will Growth Peak?

Wouldn't it be more accurate to estimate the demand for wind energy based on the available land area with suitable average wind speeds? Turbine farms are currently only economical in locations with class 3 average wind speeds, and there are a finite number of those.

If anyone is able to solve the vibration problems of rooftop turbines, we're likely to see a large commercial market. One of the interesting technologies is called "aeroelastatic flutter". The company that's developing this (Humdinger LLC) is pretty far off the radar. have you seen any other promising rooftop technologies?
