28 lut 2024 · Europe installed 18.3 GW of new wind power capacity in 2023. The EU-27 installed 16.2 GW of this, a record amount but only half of what it should be building to meet its 2030 climate and energy targets. 79% of the new wind capacity built in Europe last year was onshore.
The European Commission estimates that new EU target of at least 42.5 % renewable energy in energy consumption by 2030 will require installed capacity to grow to over 500 GW by 2030. Although the EU is a global leader in some offshore technologies, the wind sector struggles with many challenges.
Wind energy manufacturing, together with other competitive net-zero industries, supports the EU's transition to climate neutrality, while also creating growth and jobs. To accelerate wind energy manufacturing across Europe, the Commission presented the EU Wind Power Package in October 2023.
29 sty 2024 · Wind energy will be central to accelerating the roll-out of renewables and the green transition outlined in the European Green Deal and the REPowerEU plan. In 2022, the total installed wind power capacity in the EU reached 204 GW (gigawatts), most of which was onshore (92 %).
24 paź 2022 · Wind energy is central to accelerating the roll-out of renewable energy. Both onshore and offshore wind show continuous decline in costs. This is expected continue towards 2050 thanks to scaling effects and technology development. EU companies and research organisations are among the leading innovators in the wind energy sector and EU companies ...
New installations in the EU-27 reached record levels in 2023 with 16.2 GW of new wind power capacity added represent-ing 88% of all installations in Europe. For the EU to reach its 42.5% renewable energy target by 2030, wind energy installations need to average 33 GW a year between 2024 and 2030.
24 paź 2023 · To achieve the EU target that requires 42.5% of EU energy to be renewable by 2030, we will need a massive increase in wind installed capacity. This action plan will ensure that wind power continues to be a European success story.
