Considering Oklahoma's capacity, the wind industry represents another exciting chapter in the diversification of our energy production portfolio. Oklahoma has nearly 700 MW of operational wind generation. The Southwest Power Pool, a regional transmission organization, expects its 8-state region to produce 8,500 MW of wind power, with more than half coming from Oklahoma, between 2020 and 2025.
Oklahoma is the ideal location for wind generation, tower and blade production, turbine component manufacturing, repair and maintenance operations, and industry R&D. Some of the major players already here include: DMI Industries and Bergey Windpower; hundreds of wind-component manufacturers that can supply the wind industry; and developers Chermac Energy Group, FPL Energy, GE, Horizon Wind Energy, TradeWind Energy, Renewable Energy Systems, and Wind Energy Prototypes.
