Iowa......You're so windy.

Did you know:

Iowa is on the top of states in wind power generation, along with Texas.

Over 14% of our electricity is wind generated in Iowa.

As of a year ago, there were 1,100 wind turbines in Iowa.

The blades are 12 tons and 148 feet long.

Landowners with a turbine receive $2000-$5000/per year royalties.
