The Honeywell WT6500 Wind Turbine is used for residential, commercial and agriculture electrical generation. The turbine is 170 pounds with a six-foot wide fan of magnet-tipped blades. In some states, almost 75 percent of the price of the $6,000 turbine is covered by government subsidies, which is expected to provide one-third of a household's ...
The following table lists offshore wind farm areas (by nameplate capacity) that are in various states development for the Outer Continental Shelf in U.S. territorial waters of the East Coast of the United States, [31] where a Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) wind energy area lease has been secured [32] [33] and have gained at least some ...

South Fork Wind Farm is a utility-scale offshore wind farm on the Outer Continental Shelf Offshore Rhode Island, providing energy to New York state. [5]The 130 MW, 12-turbine wind is 16.6 nautical miles (30.7 km; 19.1 mi) southeast of Rhode Island's Block Island and 26 nautical miles (48 km; 30 mi) east of Montauk Point on the South Fork of New York's Long Island.
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.
The Bishop Hill Wind Farms were developed by Invenergy. [4] They are officially designated as Bishop Hill I (98 turbines), opened in 2012; Bishop Hill II (50 turbines), opened in 2012; and Bishop Hill III (53 turbines), opened in 2018. Invenergy has sold 80 percent of Bishop Hill III to the WEC Energy Group. [5]
One Energy was founded in 2009 in Marshall, Minnesota. [4] In 2011, the company moved its office to Findlay, Ohio, where it installed a project for Cooper Farms in Van Wert, Ohio. [5] Since then, One Energy has continued to develop projects consisting of typically 1-3 wind turbines (each 1.5 MW) of on-site wind energy for industrial energy users.
In 2014, the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) defined three wind energy areas offshore total approximately 307,590 acres (1,244.8 km 2), for potential commercial wind energy development. They are Kitty Hawk Wind Energy Areas (122,405 acres (495.36 km 2)), the Wilmington West Wind Energy Areas (51,595 acres (208.80 km 2)) and the ...
