FIGURE C. 2026-30 new wind power capacity in Europe and the EU - WindEurope’s Outlook
Looking ahead, we now expect Europe to install an average and 2030. This would take total installed wind capacity to 439 GW by 2030, including 366 GW onshore and 73 GW In the EU, we expect average installations of 22 GW a year 2030 - 303 GW onshore and 40 GW offshore. This remains Final Investment Decisions (FIDs) covered 15.5 GW of new onshore and 5.4 GW offshore wind capacity which will be Energy is at the heart of Europe's competitiveness challenge. Electrification will strengthen economic resilience, reduce To make this happen, Governments now need to focus on delivery. This means expanding and modernising electricity grids, investing in port infrastructure, and fully implementing framework. Changes that directly or indirectly undermine deployment, at a time when Europe's energy security and 1. 2030 REPowerEU target reduced from 440 GW after the compromise of a 42.5% renewable energy target was reached in
