wind power generation is doubling every decade or so FYI: https://www.energy.gov/articles/us-department-energy-projects-strong-growth-us-wind-power-sector

iowa for example, 60% of their power is from wind, alone. not renewables, just wind.
On a widespread basis, renewables are a massive failure and cannot begin to meet the country's energy needs any time soon.

Of course, wind has doubled in a decade as it is relatively new to use it on a widespread basis. Even so, eventually you run out of land to plant giant solar arrays and giant windmills. It is just a trendy supplement to fossil fuels that we buy from the Chinese to make them wealthy (while they build coal plants).
