Where in the thread is there an aswer to the simple question asked?

See your post #8. The 6% is the "growth in the size of the annual global market" - That is... the amount of new wind added during the year compared to the amount added the prior year.

What's the comparable figure for 2010, 2009, etc?

The disruption is all yours. It's a VERY simple question. Tell me the total capacity by year for the last decade and I'll tell you the answer.

How does that 6% compare to the last few years? FBaggins Feb 2012 #1

What percent of 200 is 41? jpak Feb 2012 #2

OK I will do this slowly jpak Feb 2012 #6

You can go as slow as you like, but until you actually "get it"... you can't answer. FBaggins Feb 2012 #7

I knew you had trouble with basic physics... FBaggins Feb 2012 #10

The 6% refers to the contribution of wind to global generating capacity jpak Feb 2012 #13

No it doesn't. FBaggins Feb 2012 #14

Why don't you stop acting out? kristopher Feb 2012 #18

Acting out? I'm simply correcting his ongoing misunderstanding. FBaggins Feb 2012 #20

Avoidance of what? kristopher Feb 2012 #26

Excuse me? FBaggins Feb 2012 #29

No. I don't think your behavior is able to be excused. kristopher Feb 2012 #34

The answer is in #38 FBaggins Feb 2012 #39

It grew at 21% per year in 2011 jpak Feb 2012 #11

Still not getting that highschool math thingy, eh? FBaggins Feb 2012 #15

FBaggins 1. How does that 6% compare to the last few years? kristopher Feb 2012 #17

The "joke" is that you keep dodging the question. FBaggins Feb 2012 #22

Maybe this will help kristopher Feb 2012 #8

It still won't convince him jpak Feb 2012 #12

It "convinces" me that you still don't get it. FBaggins Feb 2012 #16

Please stop acting like a troll. kristopher Feb 2012 #19

You wouldn't know a troll if you saw one in the mirror. FBaggins Feb 2012 #21

You obviously stepped in it in post 1. kristopher Feb 2012 #25

How many industries grew in 2011? kristopher Feb 2012 #3

Did the economic crisis start in 2011? FBaggins Feb 2012 #5

Raw figures: Dead_Parrot Feb 2012 #36

So the comparable figure for 2009 is 41% and for 2010 is -1.5%. Thanks. FBaggins Feb 2012 #38

Probably 200% ;) Dead_Parrot Feb 2012 #40

41 GW of wind = actual output of approx 17 nuclear reactors. kristopher Feb 2012 #28

Inconsistently... and for a much shorter period of time... but so what? FBaggins Feb 2012 #31

That is 17 nuclear plants worth of generation built in 1 year. kristopher Feb 2012 #33
