Myth Busting - Continued from page 4 + A study by the grid operator in Texas found similar results, concluding that adding 3,000 MW of wind energy to the state’s grid would reduce CO2 emissions by about 5.5 million tons per year, sulfur dioxide emissions by about 4,000 tons per year, and nitrogen oxide emissions by about 2,000 tons per year. (2) . In regions where a large share of electricity comes from coal power, the emissions savings of wind energy can be even larger. A DOE analysis found that Indiana could reduce CO2 emissions by 3.1 million tons per year by adding 1,000 MW of wind power. (3) * The 30 MW Kaheawa wind plant in Hawaii directly offsets power from oil-buming power plants, reducing oil imports by almost 10 million gallons per year.
