Wind Energy Projects Wind energy projects range from one or two turbines to hundreds of turbines connected to the utility grid, called wind farms . Plant Performance Certification Certified wind turbines meet accepted safety and design standards. Many wind turbine manufacturers are getting their turbines certified to give customers added confidence in their product. Cold Weather Wind energy technology is cost-effective at remote, cold weather sites. Offshore European countries with limited land are taking the lead on building wind turbines in shallow offshore water to generate electricity.
Some states offer tax incentives and other support for wind energy.
