Indeed, an increased use of electricity is planned overall by 40%, to an annual 325 TW by 2020.
That addition became the basis for the SP-8 TW Tour shoe in 2006.
Humans use energy in total at a rate of 17 TW (terawatts), 87% of which is provided by fossil fuels.

Its Ishida group has touted a similar system, designated the TW-68, which was displayed at last year's Paris Air Show.
While Anixter works the cafeteria, Spinell is talking up one of Anicom's basic businesses -- cables for security alarm systems -- to TW's sales force.
Interestingly, the TW-68 is being developed by a team of designers formerly employed by Bell Helicopter, the company that (together with Boeing Helicopter) has been readying the V-22.

While presently only 0.03 TW of energy was extracted from wind in 2008, and there is room for a considerable expansion of this technology with relatively insignificant effects on the climate, any future expansion on a global scale must take account that the potential for extraction of wind energy is finite according to the nature of the Earth system.
