Wind farms are responsible for this cool perk that many Texans get to enjoy at night.
Texas has more wind power than any other state, accounting for roughly 10 percent of the states generation. Alone among the 48 contiguous states, Texas runs its own electricity grid that barely connects to the rest of the country, so the abundance of nightly wind power generated here must be consumed here.
