Building off sharp growth in 2007‐2008, US wind power development in 2009 has been impacted dramatically by the current economic climate–and US wind players must readjust their strategies in the wake of this new competitive environment. The US wind power industry finished 2008 at a record pace with 8,546 MW of new wind plant added, led by Texas, Iowa, New York, Kansas, and Wyoming. EER forecasts a sharp decline in 2009, but a rebound in 2010 and growth of 12 GW per year on average from 2010‐2020 to supply nearly 14% of total US power demand.
How has the financial crisis altered the pace of US wind development, which players have felt the greatest impact? What will the US wind industry look like in the next decade, and how can you prepare?
