United States wind energy policy
There are currently 5,600 MW of projects under construction in 2011. The U.S. Department of Energy's 2011 report "20% Wind Energy by 2030" envisioned that wind power could supply 20% of all U.S. electricity, which included a contribution of 4% from offshore wind power.
Wind power in the United Kingdom
Wind power delivers a growing percentage of the electricity of the United Kingdom and by mid-December 2018, it consisted of 9,391 wind turbines with a total installed capacity of over 20.5 gigawatts: 12,628 megawatts of onshore capacity and 7,899 megawatts of offshore capacity. 
This placed the United Kingdom at this time as the world's fourth largest producer of wind power. Polling of public opinion consistently shows strong support for wind power in the UK, with nearly three quarters of the population agreeing with its use, even for people living near onshore wind turbines.
