Europe 'falling short on wind' Wind Europe

摘要

Europe Wind power. European countries are not building enough wind energy capacity to deliver the region's green targets, according to wind industry association Wind Europe. The organisation says that even though wind energy accounts for 15 per cent of electricity generation in the EU, installation rates need to double if the 27-nation bloc is to achieve climate neutrality and the targets set out in the Green Deal. According to Wind Europe, Europe installed 15.4 GW of new wind energy in 2019, including 11.8 GW of onshore capacity and 3.6 GW of offshore capacity. Cumulative wind capacity in the region now stands at 205 GW.
