Overview: On the 1920s and 1930s, farm families in the Midwest used wind to generate enough electricity to power their lights and electric motors. After rural electrification in the 1930s and 1940s, however, wind-generated electricity became much less common. Technological advances that have cut production costs, the need to comply with clean air laws, and, most recently, concern about global warming also have spurred the interest of utilities in wind-generated electricity.
