Texas Wind Energy Production: West Texas Leads

State Impact Texas

Texas leads the nation in wind energy production, and a lot of that wind power comes from the panhandle.  A recent article from State Impact Texas features a map showing annual wind energy production by county. 

If you’d like to see wind energy production around the world, The Wind Power, is a wind industry website that maintains a database of all wind farms. 

Note:  Keep in mind that the values revealed by the Texas map are not exact because the information is tracked by wind farm, and some farms spread across multiple counties.
