But if Americans realized the full cost of generating energy from wind power, they would be less willing to foot the bill - 
because it's more than most people think. Over the past 35 years, wind energy - which supplies just 2% of US electricity - has 
received US$30 billion in federal subsidies and grants.

If wind or solar replaced a 2-gigawatt nuclear power plant, and batteries provided the only backup, 6 to 8 gigawatts of battery 
storage would be required. The U.S. power grid has about 1,060 gigawatts of total capacity, of which about 130 gigawatts is wind 
and solar capacity.
