Wind power is not the largest source of renewable electricity. Hydropower is. Geothermal may also be a larger source. (In America, hydro is 100x larger than wind and geothermal 10x greater.) In 1995 wind power worldwide produced 5 gW of electricity while geothermal produced 5.8 gW according to the US Dept. of Energy. http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/solar.renewables/renewable.energy.annual/contents.html

Hydropower in the US alone generates more than 5gW in 1999 according to the DOE. --rmhermen
