Better wind resource maps and higher towers.

Total wind capacity is roughly 12 times more than present day demand for electricity. That is excluding areas in which wind is not economical, national parks, environmentally sensitive areas and so on.

This is more than enough to generate all of the non-electrical energy we need, such as liquid fuel from electrolysis. It is enough for the U.S. to export vast amounts of energy to other countries.
