Texas tops California in harnessing wind power
Texas tops California in harnessing wind power
Interestingly, Texas has pulled ahead of California in total energy production via wind power, by about 47 megawatts of capacity. Texas now has 2,370 megawatts total capacity via wind power. It’s a very slight lead, but at least it shows some promise for expanding use of the technology.
The report notes that wind power is “one of the fastest growing sectors in energy.” It is still a very small part of the total supply of electricity here in the USA, so it could be “fast growing” for some time to come.
