Wind energy is now the No. 1 renewable energy in the U.S. and No. 2 globally after hydroelectric power. Growth is being driven by government incentives and cost reductions from economies of scale. Capacity from offshore wind turbines is forecast to grow 25% annually over the next decade, with offshore floating turbines an emerging segment. New hybrid projects are combining land-based wind turbines with solar energy and battery storage to generate more reliable electricity for the grid.
