  • US wind resource and production continue their recent trends – volatile and weak
  • This week, production was down 31% vs. last week, with the primary culprits being weaker resource in Texas, Central, and Midwest
  • June and the first few days of July have been very poor for Texas wind, even as electricity demand has surged
