NEW YORK — The U.S. wind industry’s 2011 Annual Market Report shows that American wind power is at the heart of an American success story ending another strong year of double-digit growth. The market report illustrates how wind power has created a positive feedback loop where market certainty allows for states to generate affordable electricity from wind at record levels, which leads to one of America's fastest growing sources of Made-in-the-USA manufacturing jobs, which then allows the cost of wind to drop even further.
