New York electricity from wind, 2001 to 2025
About this statistic
New York electricity from wind stood at 6,902 in 2025, up 14.4% on the previous period.
New York electricity from wind, from the Energy Information Administration's generation survey. The underlying data is monthly; this chart sums it to years so the structural story reads clearly over the seasonal cycle. The series runs from 2001, when annual generation recorded 20.5, to 6902 in 2025, up from 6031 the period before.
The energy transition is legible in these curves: renewables compound from a small base while coal descends from a large one, and the crossing points date the turnover better than any announcement.
Frequently asked questions
Is this capacity or actual generation?
Actual net generation in gigawatt hours: electricity produced and sent to the grid, not nameplate capacity. A megawatt of solar capacity produces far fewer hours of output than a megawatt of nuclear.
How fresh is the data?
The EIA publishes monthly with a lag of about two months and revises recent months. The latest year shown may be partial until the December data lands.
