The first electricity-generating wind turbine was invented in 1888 in Cleveland, Ohio by Charles F. Brush. The turbine's diameter was 50 feet, it had 144 rotor blades made of cedar wood, and it generated about 12 kilowatts (kW) of power.

Vineyard Wind 1 will generate 800MW of electricity annually and power over 400,000 homes. The nation’s first
