2013 Per Capita Wind Generated Electricity: Image title: Average monthly per capita wind generation Data sources: Electric Power Monthly December 2013, U.S. Census for estimated state populations. Graph generation by a python program I, the author, do not claim any rights to the use of the data in other works, including other bar charts.
The Global Wind Atlas is a web-based application developed to help policymakers and investors identify potential high-wind areas for wind power generation virtually anywhere in the world, and perform preliminary calculations. It provides free access to data on wind power density and wind speed at multiple heights using the latest historical ...
Latvia's wind capacity grew by 75%, the largest percent increase in 2022. [3] In November 2018, wind power generation in Scotland was higher than the country's electricity consumption during the month. [5] Wind power's share of worldwide electricity usage in 2023 was 7.8%, up from 7.3% from the prior year.
Christopher C. Burt, a weather historian writing for Weather Underground, believes that the 1913 Death Valley reading is "a myth", and is at least 2.2 or 2.8 °C (4 or 5 °F) too high. [13] Burt proposes that the highest reliably recorded temperature on Earth could still be at Death Valley, but is instead 54.0 °C (129.2 °F) recorded on 30 ...

By the end of 2011, the United States had installed 46,919 MW of wind power, [5] and generated 94,652 GWh of electricity from wind power in 2010. [ 6 ] The annual production of a wind turbine is a product of the capacity rating, the capacity factor, and the number of hours in a year.
Typhoons, such as Pongsona (2002), can bring excessive rainfall to Guam. Guam's climate is moderated by east to northeast trade winds through the year. The average annual rainfall for the island is 86 inches (2,200 mm). [74] There is a distinct dry season from January to June, and a rainy season from July to December. [75]
