Recent advancements in technology and wind turbine design, combined with higher energy prices, have created a boom in wind energy developments across the nation. In 2006, Texas surpassed California to become the largest generator of wind energy in the nation—contributing a full quarter of the nation's wind power.

This film takes you through a West Texas wind farm—from entry gate, to the top of the turbine towers, across the landscape to interconnection at the electrical grid. Through firsthand accounts, the film provides an understanding of wind farm siting, construction, landowner perspectives, operation, and transmission issues.
