Methodology & citation

Source: U.S. Wind Turbine Database v9.1 (USGS, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, American Clean Power), September 2026. Every turbine in the database inside the 50 states and DC, placed at its own coordinates. Leaves out turbines in federal offshore waters and the territories. Block Island’s five, just off Rhode Island, count in Rhode Island. Per-capita figures use US Census Bureau 2024 population estimates.
