Most wind turbines are located in Australia as of 2010. There are many other places which use wind tubines but Texas is the main source.

Wind turbines can be located anywhere there is enough room to place them and no danger to populace.

The preferred locations are sufficiently windy and have largely constant winds, e.g. exposed high areas, like hills or small mountains or coastal areas, some wind turbines are even placed off the coast.

The limiting factors in the placement of wind turbines are the price and ease of transport to that area, the infastructure of the area and assembling the turbines.

Additionally, wind turbines are often placed in remote or coastal areas to minimize disruptions to nearby communities.
