Kaheawa Wind Farm near Maalaea, Maui, with 20 GE Energy 1.5 MW wind turbines. The DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has announced a number of wind technology projects, including a new state-of-the-art wind turbine blade test facility to be built in Ingleside, Texas. The Texas-NREL Large Blade Research and Test Facility will be ...
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 ...
Offshore wind projects are under development in wind-rich areas of the East Coast, Great Lakes, and Pacific coast. The first commercial offshore wind farm, Block Island Wind Farm, began operation in 2016. As of 2017, about 30 projects totaling 24 gigawatts (GW) of potential installed capacity were being planned.

Wind resource map of Wyoming at 50 m (164 ft) above ground. The wind farm will be located within an isolated patch of "outstanding" wind energy potential at the center-bottom of the state. The project is proposed to generate 2,000 to 3,000 megawatts (MW) of electricity and construction may take 3–4 years with a project life estimate of 30 years.
The Alta Wind Energy Center is a wind farm located in Tehachapi Pass of the Tehachapi Mountains, in Kern County, California. As of 2022, it is the largest wind farm in the United States, [ 1 ] with a combined installed capacity of 1,550 MW (2,080,000 hp).
In addition to the megawatt wind farms, community scale single wind turbines of from 250 kW to 750 kW are typically 50 meters high, and residential or farm wind turbines are typically 15–40 m (49–131 ft) high. To address these markets, maps are available showing wind potential at 30 m (98 ft) [7] and 50 m (160 ft). [8]
The wind farm is designed to produce 35-MW of electricity, enough to power 16,000 homes in New York. Power is being sold into the NYS ISO grid for sale to retail customers. This is one of the largest urban wind power developments in the world, and its wind turbines are harnessing the power of the steady winds that blow from Lake Erie. [7]
