Since population is growing, there must also be expansion of the productive capacities to insure that the next generation have the same standard of living.
The assessment also revealed the need to create renewable electricity generation targets, in place of any existing capacity expansion targets.

Starting from a basic model (Scenario One) providing more than 50 % of total energy needs from domestic renewable sources, each subsequent scenario provides variations or expansions on Scenario One, gradually reducing the reliance on imported energy, factoring in different population projections and expected improvements in renewable generation capacity and energy efficiencies, until by Scenarios Five and Six, no energy imports are required.
Wind capacity has also grown substantially over the past six years (and much more so in the years before that), but wind generation grew at a faster pace, partly because transmission constraints that previously prevented wind generators from operating at their maximum capability were gradually removed through a state - directed transmission expansion program.
