This is a list of the onshore wind farms that are larger than 250 MW in current nameplate capacity. Many of these wind farms have been built in stages, and construction of a further stage may be continuing at some of these sites. The Gansu Wind Farm in China is the largest wind farm in the world, with a target capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020.
Estimated power demand over a week in May 2012 and May 2020, Germany, showing the variability in solar and wind power both day-to-day and month-to-month. The two most important forms of renewable energy, solar and wind, are intermittent energy sources: they are not available constantly, resulting in lower capacity factors.
India has the fifth largest installed wind power capacity in the world. [96] As of 31 March 2014, the installed capacity of wind power was 21136.3 MW mainly spread across Tamil Nadu state (7253 MW). [97] [98] Wind power accounts nearly 8.5% of India's total installed power generation capacity, and it generates 1.6% of the country's power.
Land-based (onshore) wind farms have a greater visual impact on the landscape than most other power stations per energy produced. [6] [7] Wind farms sited offshore have less visual impact and have higher capacity factors, although they are generally more expensive. [2] Offshore wind power currently has a share of about 10% of new installations. [8]
Wind power costs in India are decreasing rapidly. [5] The levelised tariff of wind power reached a record low of ₹ 2.43 (2.9¢ US) per kWh (without any direct or indirect subsidies) during auctions for wind projects in December 2017. [6] [7] [8] However, the levelised tariff increased to ₹ 3.17 (3.8¢ US) per kWh in May 2023.

Wind power in Russia – Russia has a long history of small-scale wind power use, but the country has not yet developed large-scale commercial wind energy production. Wind power in Scotland – wind power is Scotland's fastest growing renewable energy technology, with 2,574 MW of installed capacity as of April 2011.
