Wind power the top ten states

November 15, 2009

These ten states have built and are operating  more mega watt producing wind farms than any other states in the country. Not only are these states leaders in current production most of them are leaders in future projects in the construction phase. (Texas and Illinois are leading the way with new construction).

  1. Texas
  2. Iowa
  3. California
  4. Minnesota
  5. Oregon
  6. Washington
  7. New York
  8. Colorado
  9. Illinois
  10. Kansas

There are some other states that are making a name for themselves in the wind power industry ( with projects in the planing and construction phases) such as:

  • Wyoming
  • North Dakota
  • Oklahoma
  • Indiana

(There is a very large wind power farm being planned in Texas with China as one of the primary partners)

With all the open land available in the United States there are sure to be many more projects undertaken in the future.
