Germany leads European wind power production with a share of 23.64 GWh, followed by the United Kingdom (14.28 GWh), and Spain (12.52 GWh). France, Sweden, and the Netherlands also contribute significantly. Smaller nations like Luxembourg, Cyprus, and Iceland participate minimally. Year-on-year growth varies, with Norway (34.98%), Ukraine (42.33%), and Serbia (54.44%) experiencing significant increases. In contrast, Romania and Slovenia show negative growth. Croatia, Greece, and Netherlands exhibit consistent advancements in wind energy production.
Future trends to monitor include the rapidly growing sectors in Ukraine, Serbia, and Norway, potentially influenced by technological advancements and policy shifts. Greater integration of wind energy in existing power grids, along with cross-border electricity markets, may also bolster the European wind power landscape. Investments and innovations in offshore wind energy, particularly in the United Kingdom and Germany, are expected to steer future growth.
