BLDW being in the renewable energy sector places it in one of the fastest growing energy sectors in the world. In the United States we are seeing tremendous growth but have a long way to go to catch up with other countries but I'm sure with all the rebates and iniatives we will be slowly catching up. Here is an article about renewable energy and where wind energy falls in the growth of renewable energy in the United States.
"Wind energy is leading the way with 19,500 MW of installed capacity at mid-year, including more than 1,000 MW added in the last six months. The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) second-quarter report [PDF] predicts that total additions for the year will come to 7,500 MW, boosting U.S. wind capacity by 45 percent. In Texas alone, more than 4,200 MW of wind capacity has been installed this year or is currently under construction. Iowa is in second place with 1,770 MW.h. "
