The American air current unloosen energy manufacture is expanding really quickly. Over $143 billion has been invested inwards novel air current unloosen energy projects inwards the U.S.A. inwards the final 10 years. You tin hand the sack sentiment how the set out of air current farms has grown inwards the USA since the 1980's on a novel interactive map from the American Wind Energy Association.
The AWEA's novel U.S. Wind Industry Map shows the place of every utility scale air current projection inwards the country. The map too shows the place of all wind-related manufacturing facilities.
Each air current farm is shown on the map alongside a blueish map marker. The size of the mark represents the air current farm's capacity. H5N1 timeline characteristic allows y'all to picket an animation of how the set out of air current farms has grown since 1981. If y'all press play on the timeline y'all tin hand the sack picket every minute each air current farm is added to the map past times the appointment of its construction.
If y'all zoom into coastal areas on the map y'all tin hand the sack run across how footling offshore air current unloosen energy production in that place currently is inwards the United States. The commencement offshore air current farm inwards the US exclusively started performance inwards 2016 at Block Island Wind Farm off the coast of Rhode Island. There are other projects nether evolution inwards wind-rich areas of the East Coast, Great Lakes as well as Pacific coast.
The U.K. currently generates a higher per centum of its electricity from offshore air current farms than whatever other country. You tin hand the sack sentiment the output of the UK's offshore air current farms on this Offshore Wind Electricity Map.
The map shows the locations of the UK's offshore air current farms. Each air current farm is represented on the map past times a scaled animated air current turbine marker. The size of the mark represents the scale of the electrical flow output from each air current farm. If y'all choose a mark on the map y'all tin hand the sack sentiment the cite of the air current farm as well as its electrical flow output inwards megawatts.
The map sidebar shows a dashboard reading of the portion of the UK's electricity currently existence generated past times offshore wind. If y'all choose a mark on the map the dashboard updates to exhibit the operator of the selected air current farm, the site capacity, the set out of turbines as well as the type of turbines.
