Onshore wind is a popular and affordable way of generating electricity globally. As of the first half of 2020, this technology was the most affordable energy-producing source in the United States, where the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) totaled around 37 U.S. dollars per megawatt generated. As of that time, Japan was still greatly relying on fossil fuel sources, as coal-generated power was the cheapest energy source.
