According to the report of the European WindEurope, the European wind energy board power increased approximately 6.8 gigavat in the first half of the year. 6 gigawatts of this increase consisted of 89 percent rising terrestrial wind energy, 741 megawatts of sea top (offshore). The increase in European wind energy board power is provided by 5.3 gigantic European Union (EU) member countries. Germany was the country that performs maximum installation with 2.2 gigavat increase. Germany 889 megavatla Spain, 760 megawatt United Kingdom, 593 megawatts followed Turkey. Karasal wind energy board power across Europe was 254 gigavat, the power of wind power board above sea was 37 gigavat.

12 gigawatt board power will be taken into the system]
According to the report, wind energy installations do not occur equal or consistent speed throughout the year. Especially sea-top wind installations vary depending on weather conditions. From the average of the last 10 years, the wind constructions above the sea are seen in the second half of the year compared to the first half. According to the report expressed by the 22.5 gigavattan 19 gigavata from the 22.5 gigavat for the end of 2025 in Europe, 12 gigavat wind energy installed power in the second half of the year will be taken into the system. 9 gigavat is expected to come from EU countries.

AB target reach 425 gigavat wind power in 2030]
According to the report, the EU’s wind power capacity of 344 gigawatts up to 2030. This will consist of 298 gigantic land, 46 gigantic sea top plants. But the EU’s goal is at 425 gigavat level. Especially when waiting for a strong installation acceleration after 2030, governments need to prioritize the electrification of the industry, the expansion and modernization of electrical networks, investments to the port infrastructure, the full implementation of the new rules of the EU.
