Texas has an estimated wind energy potential of 453,000 MW, one of the nation's largest and more than is necessary to power the entire state.
Wind energy fights air pollution and provides skilled jobs and needed income to rural areas.
With the collaboration of Enfield, McLeod, Sloan and Taddune, they ensured that provisions such as the use of tradable renewable energy generation credits and penalties for non-compliance were incorporated into the legislation. Such provisions will ensure that the RPS is implemented cost-effectively and actually leads to the development of new renewable energy generating capacity. The association's membership of more than 700 includes turbine manufacturers, wind project developers, utilities, academicians, and interested individuals from 49 states.
