This week, Amazon announced a massive new renewable energy project dubbed Amazon Wind Farm Texas. The farm, which will be built in West Texas' Scurry County, will hold over 100 massive wind turbines with a diameter larger than the wingspan of a Boeing 747, according to the company.

The project is expected to generate 1,000,000 megawatt hours of wind energy every year, enough to power 90,000 American homes for a year.

Amazon already has wind farms in Indiana, North Carolina, and Ohio, and Virginia to power their cloud data servers. Amazon Web Services (AWS) says that 40% of their infrastructure will be powered by renewable energy by the end of the year, up from 25% in 2015.
