Adding the ability to economically also add a wind generator to your garage/house that is designed to simply plug the car into at night would be wonderful. As well as allowing people to recharge their car from the less expensive Grid energy.

Right now, it is just game playing and posturing. Too much money being made from Big Oil and Gas. Too much power.
what will we be doing to the delicate balance of the weather systems by removing all the wind energy like that? Once we go all solar + wind powered, some modern day Al bore will preach to us about how conversion of light to electricity removes warmth from the Earth and how removal of wind from the air prohibits rain from reaching the forest, causing poor antarctic penguinsto freeze to death.
