WindTexasUnited States of America

Sherbino II is a 145 MW wind power station in Texas, United States of America. It is operated by Sherbino II Wind Farm LLC. Based on reported annual generation of 128 GWh, it can supply roughly 36,657 homes. It ranks #1586 of 9,833 United States of America power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2011, it is around 15 years old — relatively modern. As a non-combustion source, it has no direct CO₂ emissions from generation. In context, wind supplies about 10.3% of United States of America's electricity; the national grid averages 384 gCO₂/kWh (43.0% low-carbon) (2025).

Local climate & thermal context

This wind plant converts the kinetic energy of wind into electricity through turbine rotors. It sits in a hot semi-arid steppe climate (Köppen BSh) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 30.8°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.

Heating degree-days here run 52% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.

Climate heat-demand index: 28/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.

In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.
