ERCOT, the main electric power market in Texas, could have as much as 29.1GW of wind power capacity in place at the end of this decade, if all projects with interconnection agreements are built.

By comparison, only four countries have more installed capacity – China, the US, Germany and India.

ERCOT, or Electric Reliability Council of Texas, operates a grid that serves about 90% of the state’s electric load, 24 million customers and an economy the size of Canada’s.
