Significant Growth for Wind Power Industry

by Hard Dollar on February 10th, 2010

The wind power industry is in a period of significant growth, both globally and in the United States. In the U.S. alone, the wind power market added over 8,300 MW in 2008 of new capacity – 31 percent of the global total. Wind power capacity additions for 2009 in the U.S. totaled 9,900 MW approximately equating to $20 billion in installation investment. Current projections suggest annual wind capacity additions both in the U.S. and internationally will increase significantly over the next 3-5 years by as much as double those magnitudes achieved in 2008 and 2009.
