Score one for distributed power

Treehugger reports and B&Q in the UK is putting up a 2MW wind turbine at their Nottinghamshire distribution center. The article was light on financial details, which left me wondering if this was a publicity stunt or a bone fide investment. Either way, I like the move toward distributed power. The blessing and curse of methods like wind and solar is that they are granular. That is, you can have a small amount of it. This is a great example of industry capitalizing on the granularity of this power source.
