More and more power comes from the wind each year. In 2012 the Alta Wind Energy Center in California generated over one gigawatt. Total US production has risen from 2 GW in 2000 to 60 GW by 2012.
At the same average rate of growth the US will produce a terrawatt by 2023, and a petawatt by 2031. In contrast, the US produced only 225 GW of electricity from coal in 2006.
Other countries around the world already generate much larger percentages of their domestic energy requirements from wind than does the US.
