Summary, Trends, and Future Outlook
U.S. distributed wind market has been relatively flat for past three years.
• Impacts of ITC changes on small wind
– Small wind certification requirement
– Expiration of the Residential Renewable Energy Tax Credit for small wind
• Continued small wind exports
• Decrease in state (and utility) incentive funding
• Commercial & industrial (C&I) customers
