How much wind generating capacity currently exists in the U.S.? How much will be added over the next several years?
The U.S. Department of Energy has announced a goal of obtaining 5% of U.S. electricity from wind by 2020–a goal that is consistent with the current rate of growth of wind energy nationwide. As public demand for clean energy grows, and as the cost of producing energy from the wind continues to decline, it is likely that wind energy will provide a growing portion of the nation’s energy supply.
