Mick Cornett: Recognizes energy's role in workforce, sees future in wind

We feel like energy is a significant part of our workforce. It's a significant market sector that we need to continue to grow. And we're not tied just to fossil fuel-type energy. Our goal is for Oklahoma City to be one of the energy capitals of the United States and the world, and we need to be viable in all of those categories, especially wind. As the Pickens Plan points out, this part of the country is rich in wind resources, and we need to be taking advantage of that in Oklahoma.
