Wind power in Wisconsin started in 1990 with the installation of the Lincoln Turbines wind farm, and contributes to the state'srenewable portfolio standard established in 1998.^[1] In 2016, Wisconsin had a windgenerating capacity of 648 megawatts (MW),^[2]^[3]^[4] responsible for generating 2.4% of its electricity.^[4] In 2019, this increased to a capacity of 737 MW, and a 2.63% of generation.

Regulations regarding the siting of wind turbines substantially hinder the development of wind farms in the state.^[5]^[6]^[7]

A 98 MW wind farm, the Quilt Block Wind Farm, was under construction in southwest Wisconsin as of February 2017.^[8]^{[needs update]}
