What do we call the newest energy find in Texas?  That's right, Texas has now surpassed California in wind energy.

After breakneck growth the last three years, Texas has reached the point that more than 3 percent of its electricity, enough to supply power to one million homes, comes from wind turbines.  Texans are even turning tapped-out oil fields into wind farms.

This is great news for alternative energy proponents - you know they do everything bigger down in Texas.
