    The trouble isn't generating and storing wind power. It's transferring it from the wind power collection site to other cities. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/08/26/business...

    That's an excellent point, Scott! We'll try to address the issue in future articles, and look at some of the possible solutions that are being developed. For the most part, though, those solutions basically require that agencies and state boundaries become more cooperative. The technology isn't the problem, after all, it's the bureaucracy that needs to be overhauled.

    to move stored energy you electrolyze water
    and pump hydrogen and oxygen through pipelines to end users.

    Yeah, I think the problem would be moving the stored wind energy to the necessary places that needed it. I would imagine the energy would slowly dilute and ebb out from the storage if traveling far.
