European Wind Energy Association recently published

European Wind Energy Association recently published a report that, as the EU to increase investment and to develop a binding target that by 2020 wind power capacity will grow more than twice the 15.7 percent expected to meet the EU¡¯s electricity demand.

This report shows that the current EU countries wind turbines installed capacity of 84,340 MW total, to meet the EU¡¯s electricity demand by 5.3%. By 2015 this proportion will reach 9.4% by 2020 will rise to 15.7%, equivalent to France, Germany, Poland, Spain and the UK all residents of the household electricity, but by 2030 this proportion is expected to reach 28.5 %.

European Wind Energy wind power generator  Association expects the EU in 2011 to 2020 will invest 194 billion euros for the construction of wind power stations. Wind power will not only help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but also help transform the EU energy mix, reducing dependence on fossil fuels.

The EU has identified renewable energy development goals, 2020, 20 percent of electricity consumption from renewable energy sources.
