from Texas up through North Dakota is a region (plains) unlike anywhere else on earth, where the consistent high winds have the potential, if tapped by wind energy conversion systems (wind turbines), to produce a lot of electricity.

although the term is applied relatively, in reality, the Midwest wind resource offers more energy than Saudi Arabia's 10 million barrels a day. the typical conversion is to use GGE (gallon of gas equivalent) which equals about 33 kWh. However, 10M barrels of oil equals about a million wind turbines spinning.
