European Wind Energy Competitiveness Report

Wind energy is an important asset for the European economy. It has been resilient in the COVID-19 crisis and therefore it can play a significant role in a green economic recovery. But wind creates additional benefits beyond jobs and value to the economy. It directly benefits communities living near wind farms.

The European Wind Energy Competitiveness Reports are developed annually by ETIPWind (the European Technology & Innovation Platform for wind energy). This report depicts the 2022 progress towards several competitiveness indicators of the wind energy sector including wind energy installations, contribution of wind energy to the EU GDP, trade balance, jobs or R&I expenditure.
