High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The growth of wind power in the United States has been enhanced by a production tax credit (PTC), which pays 2.2?/kWh for the first 10 years. Development has been off and on again due to the expiration and late renewal of the PTC. It is set to expire again at the end of 2012. One of the goals set by the Department of Energy is to increase the number of states which have over 1,000 MW of wind power to 15 by 2018. By the end of 2011 there were 14. Another goal was to increase the number of states with at least 100 MW to 30 by 2010. As of 2011, there are 29. The only two states with no commercial potential for development of wind power are Florida and Mississippi. Louisiana has no onshore potential but has extensive offshore potential.
