Wind power in California

As of October 31, 2015, California has 6,022 megawatts (MW) of wind powered electricity generating capacity. California's wind power capacity has grown by nearly 350% since 2001, when it was less than 1,700 MW. 〔 As of the end of September 2012, wind energy (including that supplied by other states) now supplies about 5% of California’s total electricity needs, or enough to power more than 400,000 households. Most of California's wind generation is found in the Tehachapi area of Kern County, with some big projects in Solano, Contra Costa and Riverside counties as well. California presently ranks second nationwide in terms of capacity, behind Texas and just ahead of Iowa.〔
==History==
Wind power in California has been an area of considerable activity for many years. California was the first U.S. state where large wind farms were developed, beginning in the early 1980s.〔(Major CA Wind Energy Resource Areas )〕 By 1995, California produced 30 percent of the entire world's wind-generated electricity.〔(Overview of Wind Energy in California )〕 However, this situation has changed and Texas is currently the leader in wind power development in the USA.
Historically, most of California's wind power output has been in three primary regions: Altamont Pass Wind Farm (east of San Francisco); Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm (south east of Bakersfield) and San Gorgonio Pass Wind Farm (near Palm Springs, east of Los Angeles).〔 A fourth area, the Montezuma Hills of Solano County, was developed in 2005–2009, with the large Shiloh Wind Power Plant.
The Alta Wind Energy Center is a windfarm located in Tehachapi Pass in Kern County, California.〔( World's Largest Wind Project is Underway ) ''Renewable Energy World'', July 29, 2010.〕 Kern County is reviewing a number of other proposed wind projects that would generate a combined 4,600 megawatts of renewable energy if approved.〔(California's largest wind power projects has been approved by Kern County ) December 17, 2009.〕
