US Wind Power Industry
Taiyou Research, May 2011, Pages: 310
Wind power is the most popular type of renewable energy being used in the world today. The last few years in particular have witnessed the exponential growth of the wind power industry worldwide. Large scale wind farms are coming up all over the world and are being connected to the electric power transmission networks to generate electricity. Not only is wind power a clean source of power, but its ready availability in many places makes it an extremely attractive option for generating power.
The United States is a leader in the global wind power industry, being second behind only China. In fact, wind power accounts for almost two percent of the total electricity generated in the US.
With new installations taking place in the US with an aim to eventually generate nearly twenty percent of the country's electrical energy from wind power by 2030, the US wind power industry is poised for more growth.
