22、ustrys primary federal incentivethe production tax credit(PTC)as well as myriad state-level policies.Long-term improvements in the cost and performance of wind power technologies have also been key drivers for wind additions.Nonetheless,2022 was a relatively slow year in terms of new wind power depl
23、oymentthe lowest since 2018due in part to ongoing supply chain pressures,higher interest rates,and interconnection and siting challenges,but also the reduction in the value of the PTC that was in place up until the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act(IRA)in August 2022.Passage of IRA promises new
24、 market dynamics for wind power deployment and supply chain investments in the years ahead.IRA contains a long-term extension of the PTC at full value(assuming that new wage and apprenticeship standards are met)along with opportunities for wind plants to earn two 10 percent bonus credits that add to
25、 the PTC for meeting domestic content requirements and for locating projects in energy communities.Among many other provisions,IRA also includes new production-based and investment-based tax credits to support the build-out of domestic clean energy manufacturing.Though it is too early to see the ful
26、l impacts of IRA in historical data,IRA has already impacted analyst forecasts for future wind power capacity additions and wind industry supply-chain announcements.Key findings from this years Land-Based Wind Market Reportwhich primarily focuses on land-based,utility-scale windinclude:Installation
27、Trends The U.S.added 8.5 GW of wind power capacity in 2022,totaling$12 billion of investment.Development was concentrated in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas(ERCOT)and the Southwest Power Pool(SPP).2 Cumulative wind capacity grew to more than 144 gigawatts(GW)by the end of 2022.In addition,
28、1.7 GW of existing wind plants were partially repowered in 2022(the final,repowered capacity of these plants is 1.8 GW),mostly by upgrading rotors(blades)and nacelle components like gearboxes and generators.Wind power represented the second largest source of U.S.electric-power capacity additions in
29、2022,at 22%,behind solars 49%.Wind power constituted 22%of all generation and storage capacity additions in 2022.Over the last decade,wind represented 27%of total capacity additions,and a larger fraction of new capacity in SPP(85%),ERCOT(49%),the Midcontinent Independent System Operator(MISO)(47%),a
30、nd the non-ISO West(30%).Globally,the United States again ranked second in annual wind capacity but remained well behind the market leaders in wind energy penetration.Global wind additions totaled over 77 GW in 2022,yielding a cumulative 906 GW.The United States remained the second-leading market in
31、 terms of annual and cumulative capacity,behind China.Many countries have achieved high wind electricity shares,with wind supplying 57%of Denmarks total electricity generation in 2022 and more than 20%in a total of eight countries.In the United States,wind supplied about 10%of total generation.Texas
32、 once again installed the most wind capacity of any state in 2022(4,028 MW),followed by Oklahoma(1,607 MW);twelve states exceeded 20%wind energy penetration.Texas also remained the leader on a cumulative capacity basis,with more than 40 GW.Notably,the wind capacity installed in Iowa supplied 62%of a
33、ll in-state electricity generation in 2022,followed by South Dakota(55%),1 Note that this report seeks to align with American Clean Power(ACP)for annual wind capacity additions and project-level specifics,where possible.Differences in reporting exist between ACP and the Energy Information Administra
34、tion.2 The nine regions most used in this report are the Southwest Power Pool(SPP),Electric Reliability Council of Texas(ERCOT),Midcontinent Independent System Operator(MISO),California Independent System Operator(CAISO),ISO New England(ISO-NE),PJM Interconnection(PJM),and New York Independent Syste
35、m Operator(NYISO),and the non-ISO West and Southeast.Land-Based Wind Market Report:2023 Edition viii Kansas(47%),Oklahoma(44%),North Dakota(37%),New Mexico(35%),and Nebraska(31%).Within independent system operators(ISOs),wind electricity shares(expressed as a percentage of load)were 37.9%in SPP,24.8
36、%in ERCOT,14.5%in MISO,8.7%in California Independent System Operator(CAISO),4.0%in PJM Interconnection(PJM),3.2%in ISO New England(ISO-NE),and 3.1%in New York Independent System Operator(NYISO).Hybrid wind plants that pair wind with storage and other resources saw limited growth in 2022,with just on
37、e new project completed.There were 41 hybrid wind power plants in operation at the end of 2022,representing 2.6 GW of wind and 0.8 GW of co-located generation or storage assets.The most common wind hybrid project combines wind and storage technology,where 1.4 GW of wind has been paired with 0.2 GW o
38、f battery storage.The average storage duration of these projects is 0.6 hours,suggesting a focus on ancillary services and limited capacity to shift large amounts of energy across time.While only one new wind hybridcombining wind,solar photovoltaics(PV),and storagewas commissioned in 2022,solar hybr
39、ids continue to expand rapidly with 59 new PV+storage projects coming online in 2022.A record-high 300 GW of wind power capacity now exists in transmission interconnection queues,but solar and storage are growing at a much more rapid pace.At the end of 2022,there were 300 GW of wind capacity seeking
40、 transmission interconnection,including 113 GW of offshore wind and 24 GW of hybrid projects(in the latter case,mostly wind paired with storage).NYISO,the non-ISO West,and PJM had the greatest quantity of wind in their queues at the end of 2022.In 2022,90 GW of wind capacity entered interconnection
41、queues,41%of which was for offshore wind plants.Storage and solar interconnection requests have increased rapidly in recent years,oftentimes pairing solar with storage.Industry Trends Just four turbine manufacturers,led by GE,supplied all the U.S.utility-scale wind power capacity installed in 2022.I
42、n 2022,GE captured 58%of the market for turbine installations,followed by Vestas with 24%,Nordex with 10%,and Siemens-Gamesa Renewable Energy(SGRE)with 8%.3 The domestic wind industry supply chain began 2022 in decline,but passage of the Inflation Reduction Act has created renewed optimism about sup
43、ply-chain expansion.The number of wind turbine towers and nacelles(which sit on top of the tower and house the gearbox and generator)that we can manufacture domestically in the United States has held steady or increased over the last several years.At the end of 2022,domestic capacity was 15 GW per y
44、ear for nacelle assembly and 11 GW per year for tower manufacturing.Blade manufacturing continued its decline in 2022,with under 4 GW per year of capability by the end of the year.More broadly,many turbine manufacturers continued to face declining and even negative profit margins in 2022.Nonetheless
45、,wind-related job totals increased by 4.5%in 2022,to 125,580 full-time workers.Moreover,passage of the Inflation Reduction Act holds promise for addressing recent domestic supply-chain challenges and fueling expansion:at least eleven new,re-opened,or expanded manufacturing facilities have been annou
46、nced in recent months to serve the land-based wind market,totaling more than 3,000 new jobs.Domestic manufacturing content is strong for some wind turbine components,but the U.S.wind industry remains reliant on imports.The United States imports wind equipment from many countries,including most promi
47、nently in 2022:Mexico,India,and Spain.Nonetheless,for wind projects installed in 2022,over 85%of nacelle assembly and 70%85%of tower manufacturing occurred in the United States;in the case of towers,benefitting from import tariffs.For blades,domestic content was just 525%in 2022,having plummeted in
48、recent years.How these trends change after passage of the Inflation Reduction Act remains to be seen,though supply-chain announcements in recent months suggest a resurgence in domestic manufacturing.3 Numerical values presented here and elsewhere may not add to 100%,due to rounding.Land-Based Wind M
49、arket Report:2023 Edition ix Independent power producers own most wind assets built in 2022,extending historical trends.Independent power producers(IPPs)own 84%of the new wind capacity installed in the United States in 2022,with the remaining assets(16%)owned by investor-owned utilities.For the firs
50、t time,non-utility buyers entered into more contracts to purchase wind than did utilities in 2022.Direct retail purchasers of windincluding corporate offtakersbuy electricity from at least 44%of the new wind capacity installed in 2022.This 44%share exceeds,for the first time,that of electric utiliti
51、es,who either own(16%)or buy electricity from(17%)wind projects that,in total,represent 33%of the new capacity installed in 2022.Merchant/quasi-merchant projects and power marketers make up at least another 3%and 6%,respectively,while the remainder(14%)is presently undisclosed.Technology Trends Turb
52、ine capacity,rotor diameter,and hub height have all increased significantly over the long term.To optimize project cost and performance,turbines continue to grow in size.The average rated(nameplate)capacity of newly installed wind turbines in the United States in 2022 was 3.2 MW,up 7%from the previo
53、us year and 350%since 19981999.The average rotor diameter of newly installed turbines was 131.6 meters,a 3%increase over 2021 and 173%over 19981999,while the average hub height was 98.1 meters,up 4%from 2021 and 73%since 19981999.Turbines originally designed for lower wind speed sites dominate the m
54、arket,but the trend towards lower specific power has reversed in recent years.With growth in swept rotor area outpacing growth in nameplate capacity,there has been a decline in the average“specific power”4(in W/m2),from 393 W/m2 among projects installed in 19981999 to 233 W/m2 among projects install
55、ed in 2022though specific power has modestly increased over the last three years.Turbines with low specific power were originally designed for lower wind speed sites but are now being used at many sites as the most attractive technology.Wind turbines were deployed in higher wind-speed sites in 2022
56、than in recent years.Wind turbines installed in 2022 were located in sites with an average estimated long-term wind speed of 8.3 meters per second at a height of 100 meters above the groundthe highest site-average wind speed since 2014.Federal Aviation Administration(FAA)and industry data on project
57、s that are either under construction or in development suggest that the sites likely to be built out over the next few years will,on average,have lower average wind speeds.Increasing hub heights will help to partially offset this trend,however,enabling turbines to access higher wind speeds than othe
58、rwise possible with shorter towers.Low-specific-power turbines are deployed on a widespread basis;taller towers are seeing increased use in a wider variety of sites.Low specific power turbines continue to be deployed in all regions,and at both lower and higher wind speed sites.The tallest towers(i.e
59、.,those above 100 meters)are found in greater relative frequency in the upper Midwest and Northeastern regions.Wind projects planned for the near future are poised to continue the trend of ever-taller turbines.The average“tip height”(from ground to blade tip extended directly overhead)among projects
60、 that came online in 2022 is 164 meters.FAA data suggest that future projects will deploy even taller turbines.Among“proposed”turbines in the FAA permitting process,the average tip height reaches 195 meters.In 2022,thirteen wind projects were partially repowered,most of which now feature significant
61、ly larger rotors and lower specific power ratings.Partially repowered projects in 2022 totaled 1.7 GW prior to repowering(1.8 GW after),a slight increase from the 1.6 GW of projects partially repowered in 2021.Of the changes made to the turbines,larger rotors dominated,reducing specific power from 3
62、00 to 4 A wind turbines specific power is the ratio of its nameplate capacity rating to its rotor-swept area.All else equal,a decline in specific power should lead to an increase in capacity factor.Land-Based Wind Market Report:2023 Edition x 220 W/m2.The primary motivations for partial repowering h
63、ave been to re-qualify for the PTC,while at the same time increasing energy production and extending the useful life of the projects.Performance Trends The average capacity factor in 2022 was 36%on a fleet-wide basis and 37%among wind plants built in 2021.The average 2022 capacity factor among proje
64、cts built from 2013 to 2021 was 40%,compared to an average of 31%among all projects built from 2004 to 2012,and 23%among all projects built from 1998 to 2003.This has pushed the cumulative fleet-wide capacity factor higher over time,to 36%in 2022.The average 2022 capacity factor for projects built i
65、n 2021 was 37%,somewhat lower than for projects built from 2014 to 2020.State and regional variations in capacity factors reflect the strength of the wind resource;capacity factors are highest in the central part of the country.Based on projects built from 2017 to 2021,average capacity factors in 20
66、22 were highest in central states and lower closer to the coasts.Not surprisingly,the relative state and regional capacity factors are roughly consistent with the relative quality of the wind resource in each region.Turbine design and site characteristics influence performance,with declining specifi
67、c power leading to sizable increases in capacity factor over the long term.The decline in specific power over the last two decades has been a major contributor to higher capacity factors,but has been offset in part by a tendency toward building projects at sites with lower annual average wind speeds
68、.As a result,average capacity factors have been relatively stable among projects built over the last nine years,with some evidence of modest declines among post-2018 vintage projects as specific power has drifted upwards in the most recent several years and site quality has decreased somewhat.Wind p
69、ower curtailment in 2022 across seven regions averaged 5.3%,up from a low of 2.1%in 2016.Across all ISOs,wind energy curtailment in 2022 stood at 5.3%generally rising over the last six years.This average masks variation across regions and projects:SPP(9.2%),ERCOT(4.7%),MISO(4.4%),and NYISO(3.2%)expe
70、rienced the highest rates of wind curtailment in 2022,while the other three ISOs were each at less than 2%.2022 was an above-average wind resource year across most of the country.The strength of the wind resource varies from year to year;moreover,the degree of inter-annual variation differs from sit
71、e to site(and,hence,also region to region).This temporal and spatial variation impacts project performance from year to year.In 2022,the national wind index stood at 1.06,its highest level since 2014,as most regions experienced an above-average wind year(the non-ISO West excepted).Wind project perfo
72、rmance degradation also explains why older projects did not perform as well in 2022.Capacity factor data suggest performance decline with project age,though perhaps mostly once projects age beyond 10 years.The apparent decline in capacity factors as projects progress into their second decade partial
73、ly explains why older projectse.g.,those built from 1998 to 2003did not perform as well as newer projects in 2022.Cost Trends Wind turbine prices continued to increase in 2022,reaching roughly$1,000/kW.Wind turbine prices declined by 50%between 2008 and 2020.However,recent supply chain pressures and
74、 elevated commodity prices have led to increased turbine prices.Data indicate recent average pricing in the range of$900/kW to$1,200/kW5,a level roughly similar to that last seen in 2017 and 2018 and up from a range of$800-$1,000/kW for 20192021.Surprisingly,average installed project costs among our
75、 small sample of 2022 projects did not follow turbine prices higher.After four years of relatively stable costs of$1600/kW from 2018 5 All cost figures presented in the report are denominated in real 2022 dollars.Land-Based Wind Market Report:2023 Edition xi through2021,the surprising drop in the ca
76、pacity-weighted average installed cost in 2022to$1,370/kWis partly attributable to the outsized influence of a single large project in our relatively small 2022 plant sample and to the concentration of wind deployment in 2022 in the low-cost regions of SPP and ERCOT.The 2022 capacity-weighted averag
77、e may change as more data become available over time.Recent installed costs differ by region.The lowest-cost projects in recent years have been in ERCOT(averaging$1360/kW)and SPP($1470/kW),while MISO projects have averaged$1730/kW.Again,sample size in 2022(and,to a lesser extent,in 2021)is abnormall
78、y low,and these averages may change as more data become available.Installed costs(per megawatt)generally decline with project size;are lowest for projects over 200 MW.Installed costs exhibit economies of scale,with costs declining as project capacity increases.Operations and maintenance costs varied
79、 by project age and commercial operations date.Despite limited data,projects installed over the past 16 years have,on average,incurred lower operations and maintenance(O&M)costs than older projects.The data also suggest that O&M costs tend to increase as projects age,at least for the older projects
80、in the sample.Power Sales Price and Levelized Cost Trends Wind power purchase agreement prices have been drifting higher since about 2018,with a recent range from below$20/MWh to more than$40/MWh.The combination of declining capital and operating costs and improved performance drove wind PPA prices
81、to all-time lows through 2018,though prices have since stabilized and then increasedin part due to supply-chain and other inflationary pressures.Though our sample size in the last year or two is relatively small,recent pricing appears to be around$20/MWh in the Central region of the country,a bit hi
82、gher in the West(ranging from$20/MWh to$40/MWh),and higher still in the East($50/MWh).LevelTen Energys PPA price indices confirm rising PPA prices and regional variation.In contrast to the PPAs summarized above,which principally involve utility purchasers,LevelTen Energy provides an index of PPA off
83、ers made to large,end-use customers.These data also show that prices have risen over the last couple of years and vary by ISO.Among regions reporting data,CAISO features the highest pricing($60/MWh in the third quarter of 2022 once converted to levelized 2022 dollar terms);the lowest prices are foun
84、d in SPP and ERCOT($33/MWh in 2022 dollars).In real dollar terms,LevelTens reported price trends since 2018 are similar to the real-dollar denominated PPA trends described in the prior section.Among a relatively small sample of projects built in 2022,the(unsubsidized)average levelized cost of wind e
85、nergy has fallen to around$32/MWh.Trends in the levelized cost of energy(LCOE)follow PPA trends,at least over the long term.Winds LCOE decreased from 1998 to 2005,rose through 2009-2011,declined through 2018,but has remained steady over the last several years.The national average LCOE among a small
86、sample of projects built in 2022excluding the PTCwas$32/MWh.This average is impacted by the concentration of projects installed in 2022 in the windy,low-cost regions of ERCOT and SPP.As more data become available,the average LCOE among 2022(and 2021)wind plants could be revised.Levelized costs vary
87、by region,with the lowest costs in SPP and ERCOT.The lowest average LCOEs for projects built in 2021 and 2022only considering regions with at least two plants in the sampleare found in SPP and ERCOT(both$33/MWh on average),with PJM averaging the highest at$46/MWh.Cost and Value Comparisons Despite r
88、elatively low PPA prices,wind faces competition from solar and gas.The once-wide gap between wind and solar PPA prices has narrowed,as solar prices have fallen more rapidly than wind Land-Based Wind Market Report:2023 Edition xii prices over the last decade.With the support of federal tax incentives
89、,both wind and solar PPA prices are on par with or below the projected cost of burning natural gas in gas-fired combined cycle units.The grid-system market value of wind surged in 2022 across many regions and was often higher than recent wind PPA prices.Following the sharp drop in wholesale electric
90、ity prices(and,hence,wind energy market value)in 2009,average wind PPA prices tended to exceed the wholesale market value of wind through 2012.Continued declines in wind PPA prices brought those prices back in line with the market value of wind in 2013,and wind has generally remained competitive in
91、subsequent years.In 2022,wind energy value remained at elevated levels after having rebounded in 2021 from the low associated with the pandemic.The national average market value of wind in 2022 was$32/MWh.With lower natural gas prices so far in 2023,winds average market value may decline this year.T
92、he grid-system market value of wind in 2022 varied strongly by project location,from an average of$18/MWh in SPP to$83/MWh in ISO-NE.Regionally,wind market value in 2022 was lowest in SPP(average of$18/MWh)and highest in ISO-NE and CAISO($83/MWh and$76/MWh).The market value across all wind projects
93、located in ISOs spanned$12/MWh to$77/MWh in 2022(10th90th percentile range).Within a region,transmission congestion can noticeably reduce the grid value of wind plants.The grid-system market value of wind tends to decline with wind penetration,impacted by generation profile,transmission congestion,a
94、nd curtailment.The regions with the highest wind penetrations(SPP at 38%,ERCOT at 25%,and MISO at 14%)have generally experienced the largest reduction in winds value relative to average wholesale prices.In 2022,winds value was roughly 40%,50%,50%,and 60%,lower than average wholesale prices in NYISO,
95、MISO,ERCOT,and SPP,respectively;but was only roughly 10%lower in ISO-NE and 20%lower in CAISO and PJM.These value reductions were primarily caused by a combination of transmission congestion and hourly wind generation that was negatively correlated with wholesale prices.Curtailment had only a minima
96、l impact.The health and climate benefits of wind are larger than its grid-system value,and the combination of all three far exceeds the levelized cost of wind.Wind reduces emissions of carbon dioxide,nitrogen oxides,and sulfur dioxide,providing public health and climate benefits.Nationally and consi
97、dering all wind plants,these health and climate benefits can be quantified in monetary terms,averaging$135 per MWh of wind in 2022(based on updated methods and damage assumptionssee the full report and Appendix).These benefits were largest in the Central($200/MWh),Midwest($133/MWh),Texas($111/MWh),a
98、nd Western($109/MWh)regions,and were lowest in New York($58/MWh),New England($83/MWh),and the Mid-Atlantic($89/MWh).Combined,the national average climate,health,and grid-system value sums to five times the average LCOE of plants built in 2022.Specifically,climate,health,and grid value averaged$99/MW
99、h,$37/MWh,and$32/MWh,respectively,compared to an average LCOE of$32/MWh.Future Outlook Energy analysts project growing wind deployment,spurred by incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act.Expected capacity additions range from 7.1 GW to 12 GW in 2023.Expected additions then increase rapidly,supporte
100、d by expanded incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act as well as anticipated growth in offshore wind.By 2027,expected additions range from 18.4 GW to 22.7 GW.The influence of the IRAmost importantly,its long-term extension of the PTC along with opportunities for wind plants to earn bonus credits i

126、-level policies.Long-term improvements in the cost and performance of wind power technologies have also been key drivers for wind additions,yielding low-priced wind energy for utility,corporate,and other power purchasers.Nonetheless,2022 was a relatively slow year in terms of new wind power deployme
127、ntthe lowest since 2018due in part to ongoing supply chain pressures,increased interest rates,and interconnection and siting challenges,but also the reduction in the value of the PTC that was in place up until the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act(IRA)in August 2022.Passage of IRA promises new
128、market dynamics for wind power deployment and supply chain investments in the years ahead(U.S.DOE 2023a).IRA contains a long-term extension of the PTC at full value(assuming that new wage and apprenticeship standards are met)along with opportunities for wind plants to earn two 10 percent bonus credi
129、ts that add to the PTC for meeting domestic content requirements and for being located in energy communities.6 Among many other provisions,IRA also includes new production-based and investment-based tax credits to support the build-out of domestic clean energy manufacturing.Though it is too early to
130、 see the full impacts of IRA in historical data,IRA has already impacted analyst forecasts for future wind power capacity additions and wind industry supply-chain announcements.This annual reportnow in its seventeenth yearprovides an overview of trends in the U.S.wind power market,with a particular
131、focus on the year 2022.The report begins(Chapter 2)with an overview of installation-related trends:U.S.wind power capacity growth;how that growth compares to other countries and generation sources;the amount and percentage of wind energy in individual U.S.states;hybrid projects that couple wind with
132、 storage and other sources of generation;and the quantity of proposed wind power capacity in interconnection queues in the United States.In Chapter 3,the report covers an array of wind industry trends:developments in turbine manufacturer market share;manufacturing and supply-chain developments;wind
133、turbine and component imports into the United States;project financing developments;and trends among wind power project owners and power purchasers.Chapter 4 summarizes wind turbine technology trends:turbine capacity,hub height,rotor diameter,and specific power,as well as changes in site-average win
134、d speed and recent repowering activity.Chapter 5 discusses wind plant performance.Chapter 6 discusses the cost and pricing of U.S.wind energy.In doing so,it describes trends in capacity factors,wind turbine prices,installed project costs,and operations and maintenance(O&M)expenses.Chapter 7 reports
135、on levelized costs,calculated based on the input parameters from earlier chapters.The report also reviews the prices paid for wind power through power purchase agreements(PPAs)and how those prices compare to the value of wind generation in wholesale energy markets,forecasts of future natural gas pri
136、ces,and sales prices for solar power.6 For more on energy communities,see:https:/energycommunities.gov/energy-community-tax-credit-bonus/.For additional details on the domestic content bonus and other tax provisions,see:https:/www.irs.gov/inflation-reduction-act-of-2022.Land-Based Wind Market Report
137、:2023 Edition 2 Chapter 8 assesses the levelized cost of wind energy relative to its societal value,defined somewhat narrowly here to include the grid-system value of wind along with its health and climate benefits.The report concludes(Chapter 9)with a preview of possible near-term market developmen
138、ts based on the findings of other analysts.Many of these trends vary by state or region,depending in part on the strength of the local wind resource.To that end,Figure 1 superimposes the boundaries of nine regions,seven of which align with organized wholesale power markets(i.e.,independent system op
139、erators),7 on a map of average annual U.S.wind speed at 100 meters above the ground.These nine regions will be referenced on many occasions throughout this report.Sources:AWS Truepower,National Renewable Energy Laboratory(NREL)Figure 1.Regional boundaries overlaid on a map of average annual wind spe

141、r is multifaceted,and includes smaller,customer-sited wind turbines used to power residences,farms,and businesses.Further information on distributed wind power,which includes smaller wind turbines as well as the use of larger turbines in distributed applications,is available through a separate annua

144、 Power Associations historical methodology,and is also justified by the fact that the U.S.tax code makes a similar distinction.In years prior to 2011,different cut-offs are used to better match ACPs reported capacity numbers and to ensure that older utility-scale wind power projects in California ar

150、igure 2).9 This growth represented nearly$12 billion of investment in new wind power plants in 2022,for a cumulative investment of more than$300 billion since the beginning of the 1980s.10,11 Nearly 77%of the new wind capacity installed in 2022 is located in ERCOT(39%)and SPP(37%),with the remainder
151、 mostly in MISO and the non-ISO West(each with 11%).In addition to the newly installed capacity reported above,1.7 GW of existing wind plants were“partially repowered”in 2022(the final,repowered capacity of these plants is 1.8 GW).12 Partial repowering,in which major components of turbines are repla

160、upporting deployment was the continued availability of the PTC(even if at a reduced level),state renewables portfolio standards(RPS),and corporate demand for renewable energy.Meanwhile,the ability of partially repowered wind projects to access the PTC has been the primary motivator for the growth in
161、 partial repowering in recent years.Long-term improvements in the cost and performance of wind power technologies have also been key drivers for wind additions,yielding low-priced wind energy for utility,corporate,and other power purchasers even as supply chain constraints and increased commodity co

211、pproximately equals the total installed U.S.electric generating capacity in 2022.Concerningly,the subset of proposed plants that work their way through the interconnection process and come online are taking longer to do so:the median wind project reaching commercial operation in 2022 submitted an in
212、terconnection request nearly 6 years prior(Rand et al.2023).16 The total wind capacity in the interconnection queues is spread across the United States,as shown in Figure 11(left image),with the largest amounts in NYISO(22%),the West(non-ISO)(21%),and PJM(16%).Smaller amounts are found in SPP(12%),M
213、ISO(11%),CAISO(6%),ERCOT(6%),ISO-NE(5%),and the Southeast(non-ISO)(1%).Nearly half(48%)of active wind capacity in the queues has requested to come online by the end of 2025,and 15%of wind capacity has a fully executed interconnection agreement.Focusing just on wind power additions to the queues in 2
214、022(Figure 11,right image),NYISO,the West(non-ISO),and MISO experienced especially large annual additions(17 GW each),with NYISOs additions being almost entirely for offshore wind.Across all queues,38%(113 GW)of all wind capacity in the queues at the end of 2022 was offshore,and 41%(37 GW)of the win
215、d added to queues in 2022 was offshore.New offshore wind capacity was added on the East Coast in 2022(NYISO,PJM,ISO-NE),but not the West Coast due to CAISO delaying their next interconnection application window until 2023.Note:Offshore areas reflect the amount of offshore wind in the interconnection

246、 on imports Despite the breadth of the domestic wind industry supply chain,the U.S.wind sector is reliant on imports of wind equipment.The level of dependence varies by component:some components have a relatively high domestic share,whereas others remain largely imported.These trends are revealed,in
247、 part,by data on wind equipment trade from the U.S.Department of Commerce.20 Figure 18 presents data on the dollar value of estimated imports to the United States of wind-related equipment that can be tracked through trade codes.The figure shows imports of wind-powered generating sets and parts,incl
248、uding nacelles(i.e.,nacelles with blades,nacelles without blades,and,in some cases,other turbine components internal to the nacelle)as well as imports of other select turbine components shipped separately from the generating sets and nacelles.21 The turbine components included in the figure consist
249、only of those that can be tracked through trade codes:towers,generators(as well as generator parts),and blades and hubs.22 20 See the Appendix for further details on data sources and methods used in this section,including the specific trade codes considered.21 Wind turbine components such as blades,
250、towers,and generators are included in the data on wind-powered generating sets and nacelles if shipped in the same transaction.Otherwise,these component imports are reported separately.22 Though all the import estimates in the figure since 2020 are specific to wind equipment,import trends should be
251、viewed with caution because the underlying data from earlier years are based on trade categories that are not all exclusive to wind.Some of these earlier-year estimates therefore required assumptions about the fraction of larger trade categories likely to be represented by wind turbine components.No
252、te also that the trade code for towers is not exclusive to wind,but is believed to be dominated by wind since 2011we assume that 100%of imports from this trade category,since 2011,represent wind equipment.Land-Based Wind Market Report:2023 Edition 21 Note:Wind-related trade codes and definitions are
253、 not consistent over the full time period.Source:Berkeley Lab analysis of data from USA Trade Online,https:/usatrade.census.gov Figure 18.Imports of wind-related equipment that can be tracked with trade codes The estimated imports of tracked wind-related equipment into the United States increased su
254、bstantially from 2006 to 2008,before falling through 2010,increasing somewhat in 2011 and 2012,and then plummeting in 2013 with the simultaneous drop in U.S.wind installations.From 2014 through 2022,imports of wind-related turbine equipment generally followed U.S.wind installation trends,bouncing ba
255、ck from the low of 2013 and then with a marked decline in 2021 and 2022 as wind plant installations also declined.Interpreting time trends in these data is challenging given changes in annual wind additions from year to year,time lags between equipment import and installation,and fluctuations in win
256、d turbine and equipment pricing.Also,because imports of component parts occur in additional,broad trade categories different from those included in Figure 18,the data presented here understate the aggregate amount of wind equipment imports.Nonetheless,focusing on the subset of trade categories shown
257、 in Figure 18 and normalizing by wind turbine prices and time lags,overall turbine-level import shares are estimated to have increased from roughly 20%in 2015 to over 35%in 2022.This suggests that the U.S.has become more reliant on imports over this period.Figure 19 shows the total value of tracked
258、wind-specific imports to the United States in 2022,by country of origin,as well as states of entry.Major countries from which the United States imports wind equipment include Mexico,India,and Spain,which together account for$1.4 billion in wind-specific exports to the U.S.in 2022.Texas remained the

291、rbines employed rotors that were 115 meters in diameter or larger,while 98%of newly installed turbines featured such rotors in 2022(and 29%of those were at least 130 meters).26 Figure 24 and a number of the other figures and tables included in this report combine data into both one-and two-year peri

294、 rotor diameter Turbines originally designed for lower wind speed sites dominate the market,but the trend towards lower specific power has reversed in recent years As wind turbine blade length has increased over time,the amount of area the blades cover when spinning,known as the rotor swept area(in
295、m2),has grown rapidly over the last two decades.Rotor swept area has grown faster than the increase in average nameplate capacity of wind turbines over time.This has resulted in a decline in the average“specific power”among the U.S.turbine fleet over time,which is calculated by dividing the nameplat
296、e capacity(in watts W)by the rotor swept area(m2).This value has declined from 393 W/m2 among projects installed in 19981999 to 233 W/m2 among projects installed in 2022.However,as shown in Figure 26,the long-term decline in specific power has reversed in recent years,with specific power rising slig
297、htly since the low point in 2019 as turbines with a specific power in the range of 180200 W/m2 have become less popular or available as wind turbine capacities have increased significantly over this timeframe.All else equal,a lower specific power will boost capacity factors,because there is more swe
298、pt rotor area available(resulting in greater energy capture)for each watt of rated turbine capacity.This means that the generator is likely to run closer to or at its rated capacity more often.In general,turbines with low specific power were originally designed for lower wind speed sites,intended to
299、 maximize energy capture in areas where large-rotor machines would not be placed under excessive physical stress due to high or turbulent winds.As suggested in Figure 26 and as detailed later,however,such turbines are in widespread use in the United Stateseven in sites with high wind speeds.The impa

302、bine specific power Wind turbines were deployed in higher wind-speed sites in 2022 than in recent years Figure 27 shows the long-term average wind resource at wind project sites,by commercial operation date.The figure depicts the site-average wind speed(in meters per second,on the right axis)both at
303、 100 meters and at the hub heights for projects installed in each year.Wind resource quality at 100 meters(blue bars)is measured on the left axis.27 Wind projects that came online in 2022 are locatedon averageat sites with an estimated long-term average 100-meter wind speed of 8.3 meters per second(
304、m/s,or 18.6 miles per hour).Given that the average hub height among 2022 wind plants was nearly 100 meters,the same 8.3 m/s wind speed largely holds at hub height as well.Measured at 100 meters,this is the highest site-average wind speed since 2014.Measured at average hub height,it is the highest si

307、7 The wind resource quality index is based on site estimates of gross capacity factor at 100 meters by AWS Truepower.A single,common wind turbine power curve is used across all sites and timeframes in this case,and no losses are assumed.The values are indexed to projects built in 19981999.Further de
308、tails are found in the Appendix.A benefit of this wind resource quality index is that changes in the index value will better approximate expected changes in actual wind project performance than will changes in average annual wind speed.28“Under construction”turbines are part of a project where const

312、f installation at 100 meters and at turbine hub height Several factors could have driven the observed long-term trends in average site quality and wind speeds.First,the availability of low-wind-speed turbines that feature lower specific power has enabled the economic build-out of lower-wind-speed si
313、tes;the same is true with taller towers.Second,transmission constraints(or other siting constraints,or even just regionally differentiated wholesale electricity prices)may have,over time,increasingly focused developer attention on those projects in their pipeline that have access to transmission(or
314、higher-priced markets,or readily available sites without long permitting times),even if located in somewhat lower wind resource sites.These factors may partially explain why average resource quality and wind speeds dropped from the late 1990s to 2012 and again tended to decline from 2014 through 202
315、1.The build-out of new transmission(for example,the completion of major transmission additions in West Texas in 2013),however,may at times have offered the chance to install new projects in more energetic sites.Other forms of federal and/or state policy could also play a role.For example,wind projec
316、ts built in the four-year period from 2009 through 2012 were able to access a 30%cash grant(or ITC)in lieu of the PTC.Many projects availed themselves of this incentive and,because the dollar amount of the grant(or ITC)was not dependent on how much electricity a project generates,it is possible that
317、 developers also seized this limited opportunity to build out the less-energetic sites in their development pipelines.State policies can also sometimes motivate in-state or in-region wind development in lower wind resource regimes.Finally,the sizable increase in site-average wind resource quality in
318、 2022 may be due to the relatively slow pace of new project installations in 2022,partially a consequence of the declining value of and uncertainty in the production tax credit prior to the Inflation Reduction Act.These factors tended to concentrate developer attention in 2022 on the highest-quality
319、 and lowest-cost wind sites in SPP and ERCOT,leading to a buildout in high wind-speed areas.another 18 months,while“proposed”turbines have not yet received any determination.Pending and proposed turbines may not all ultimately be built.However,analysis of past data suggests that FAA pending and prop
