Current usa electricity consumption is 4,000gwh and total energy consumption 16,000gwh excerpt The top state for wind energy potential is Texas, which has 435,638 km2 of wind land area where the capacity factor for wind at 80 m hub height is 30%. After excluded lands (protected lands, parks, wilderness, urban area, airports, wetland, water features) are subtracted, the remaining 380,306 km2 represents 55% of the state which could install 1,901,530 MW of wind turbines and generate 6,527,000 (mistake?) GWh a year of renewable power. |
