Iowa, leads the entire country in wind generation, and accounts for about,
. . . 1/3 of Iowa's power generation, with more than
. . . 6,300 megawatts of installed wind capacity.

Iowa's solar tax credit program has resulted in nearly,
. . . $85 million in solar project investments since 2012.
But Iowa ranks,
. . . 32nd among the states for installed solar capacity.

Iowa "leads the country"?
Not so much.
As screwed up as Texas is in all other regards; the state still leads in wind generation.
