wind power capacity
Wind power capacity refers to the maximum amount of electricity that wind turbines can generate under ideal conditions, measured in watts (or more commonly, megawatts). It indicates the potential power output of a wind farm if the turbines operated at full capacity. However, actual energy production depends on wind availability and speeds, which vary over time. Capacity helps compare different wind projects and assess their contribution to electricity supply, playing a key role in the transition toward renewable energy by providing a clean, sustainable source of power that reduces reliance on fossil fuels.
