Fun Facts About Texas: Wind Energy

What do you know about Texas? I have lots of fun facts for y’all on the Lone Star State. Y’all need to make it a destination vacation. You probably think of Texas as a bunch of cowboys, steers and oil wells. Did you know that Texas has produced more gigawatt-hours of electricity from renewable sources than any other state for several years running, thanks largely to wind energy. Now, the state is expanding its lead by continuing to be the county’s leader in wind energy, by a mile, and quickly closing the gap on California on utility-scale solar power. In 2022, Texas generated 136,118 gigawatt-hours from wind and utility-scale solar, most of it from wind. Have you made Texas a destination vacation yet? Maybe it is time for y’all to come visit!
