Wind power surges past nuclear in China, India, Brazil and South Africa

So, Some conclusions:

Even with an early start, nuclear power is already surpassed by wind power production in China and in India.

Delays required to decide, to finance and to build new nuclear power plants and the much easier and faster onshore wind power development will lead to a wind power production larger than nuclear in a few years in Brazil and then in South Africa.

As in those four large countries, wind power will remain easier to develop than nuclear energy in small and intermediate developing and emerging countries.

Those tendencies and opportunities will be reinforced by the decreases in wind power investment and kWh costs and by the increases in capacity factors of new onshore wind farms built with the new models of wind turbines of the emerging “Silent Wind Power Revolution” delivering high and very high capacity factors including in light wind speeds areas [2].

This fast development of clean and affordable onshore wind power production in developing and emerging countries will contribute to lower CO2 emissions resulting from the too high amount of fossil fuels burnt in the world for power production .
