But how effective is wind power, how much are we using it, and which countries lead the way? How does wind energy compare to other energy sources, and what are its pros and cons?
This factsheet delves into the current state of the German wind power industry, key players, and the status of funding and support in an energy landscape increasingly oriented towards
In 2017, a total of 15,680 MW of wind power was installed, representing 55% of all new power capacity, and the wind power generated 336 TWh of electricity, enough to supply 11.6% of the EU''s electricity
In 2024, the total wind power capacity installed worldwide surpassed 1.1 terawatts, growing by more than 100 gigawatts in comparison to the previous year. China is the leading country
Below is a chart for all countries where data are available. Domin. Rep. Bosnia & Herz. Ant.& Barb. Eq. Guinea. St. Vincent & Definition: Billion kilowatthours of electricity generated from wind. Selected
China is the largest producer of wind power in the world, having generated 466.5 terawatt hours (TWh) of wind power in 2021, more than 29% of the global total of 1,596.4 TWh produced during the year.
These countries demonstrate that the world as a whole can achieve a 40-50% share of wind power in total electricity generation, as outlined by the WWEA in a long-term scenario.
