Wind power is a branch of the energy industry that has expanded quickly in the United States over the last several years. In 2024, 451.9 terawatt-hours were generated by wind power, or 10.49% of electricity in the United States. The average wind turbine generates enough electricity in 46 minutes to power the average American home for one month. In 2019, wind power surpassed hydroelectric power as the largest renewable energy source in the U.S
