Up to $ 2.1bn of revenue and more than 23 GW of new wind power is at risk because limitations in the US transportation sector could impair its ability to deliver components for future projects , according to a study by Wood ##ruff Power & Energy . While the U.S. wind energy installation outlook looks bright — more than 23 gigawatts in new capacity forecast over the next two years — looming unforeseen supply chain bottlenecks could lead to project cancellations and postponements. Furthermore , a failure to tackle supply chain problems could result in the cancellation of more than 90 % of new wind projects planned in the next two years , the study claimed . Dan Shreve from Wood Mackenzie urged the wind industry to seek public policy relief to enable wind production tax credit extensions beyond 2021 .
