In 2024, Germany remains the leader in European wind power production with 23.66 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. The United Kingdom and Spain follow with significant shares of 14.29 and 12.53 respectively. Over the last two years, notable increases in wind power production were observed in countries like Norway (35.05%), Ukraine (42.51%), and Moldova (38.03%). Conversely, the Czech Republic and Slovenia showed minimal or negative growth.
Future trends to watch include the potential expansion in the wind power sectors of smaller emerging players like Serbia, Kosovo, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Additionally, sustained investments in offshore wind infrastructure could further boost production capacities in leading nations such as Germany and the United Kingdom. Adapting to evolving technological advancements and government policies will be key drivers for the wind energy market in the coming years.
