8 Countries that Produce the Most Wind Energy in the World

2. The United States of America

Cumulative installed wind power capacity: 74,471 megawatts

Percentage share of total wind power capacity of the world: 17.2%

From almost 45,000 megawatts of Germany to the 74,000 megawatts of the US, the latter is a long way ahead from the former. The USA is playing a very important role in the development of the wind power sector and slowly increasing its percentage of wind power generation to the total electricity produced by the nation. In states like Iowa, 31% of power comes from the wind, which is a giant leap from former years.
