Be careful. The article refers to capacity not actual output.

In this case they are talking about actual power produced not capacity. Their wording is a bit confusing. You can google the amount of electricity produced by wind and see the growth year by year which also shows the 8 percent to be production not capacity.

From wiki:

Wind power in the United States is a branch of the energy industry that has expanded quickly over the latest several years. For the twelve months through November 2017, wind power in the United States amounted to 254.2 terawatt-hours, or 6.33% of all generated electrical energy.
