According to data collected by the U.
S.
Energy Information Administration (EIA), in 2020, the United States is expected to add more than 23 GW of new wind turbine capacity, far exceeding the 13.
2 GW level
set in 2012.
According to EIA data, 5 GW of new wind turbines were added in the first 8 months of the year, but for wind turbine installations, it is typical that most of the annual capacity increases came online
in the final months of the year.
According to the project timeline reported to EIA by plant owners and developers, 18.
5 GW of wind turbine capacity
will also come online in the United States from September to December.
The 5 GW added in the first eight months of 2020 already exceeds the capacity added in the same period of any year except 2009
.
Developers expect an additional 18.
5 GW to be added in the last four months of 2020, including 8.
9 GW in September and 9.
6 GW
in November-December.
Typically, December is the month
when wind turbine capacity is added the most.
Over the past 10 years, 41% of the annual increase in wind capacity came online
in December.
Overall, the U.
S.
Production Tax Credit (PTC) policy, which expires at the end of 2020, has led to larger-than-average capacity additions, just as
previous tax credit reductions led to significant increases in wind power generation in 2012 and 2019.
In addition, turbine projects that come online by 2023 and begin construction in 2019 are eligible for lower PTC prices
.
By state, Texas has the largest installed wind capacity, with 29.
1 GW
installed as of August 2020.
Project developers in Texas expect to add another 4.
0 GW
by the end of the year.
Project developers plan to add 2.
7 GW of installed capacity in Oklahoma, increasing the state's wind capacity from 8.
2 GW to 10.
9 GW
.
In its November 2020 Short-Term Energy Outlook, the EIA showed that wind energy accounted for 8.
8% of U.
S.
electricity generation from 7.
4% in 2019, more than any other renewable energy source
.
EIA predicts that the share of wind power will reach 10.
3%
by 2021.
