| China's Wind Power |

| China's current pace of wind development will bring 10,000 MW by the end of this year, two years ahead of schedule. What's more, they foresee a total of 100,000 MW by 2020, an increase in wind energy of 1667%. And, they add, this may be a conservative estimate. The region of Inner Mongolia, site for this current project, is estimated to have sufficient wind resources to supply up to 40% of China's ultimate wind energy potential. |

| #1 To put this into perspective, the U.S. electric power industry's total installed generating capacity was 1,089,807 megawatts (MW) as of December 31, 2007. This includes all sources. |
