Only because you could the "US" as a single entity without adjusting for area, population, or total generation.
The US 29th in terms of electricity produced by wind, China is 32nd.
- KoftaBob 3y agoThe US is 12th in per capita electricity generation from wind based on this data. Where are you getting those numbers from? https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/wind-electricity-per-capita?tab=table https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/wind-electricity-per-capi...
- ta1243 3y agoFrom your very link, sorted by % of electricity generated. Denmark produces 55% of its electricity from wind. Ireland 33%. Germany and the UK about 23%. The US at just 10% is down below places including Turkey, Morocco, Brazil, Nicaragua and Costa Rica. It is slightly better than average across the world which is something.
