Wind energy meets 16% of the electricity need in Europe and about 9% in Turkey. Wind, which is clean and cheap energy, also represents 300,000 jobs in the EU, while each newly installed wind turbine generates 10 million euros of economic activity.

As the wind blows, the future and the economy continue to take shape. So much so that the wind energy sector alone creates billion-euro economic values ​​and brings the world together with cleaner and cheaper energy.

The amount of future new wind capacity in Europe financed last year rose to a record high, industry group WindEurope said on Thursday, as falling costs and increased competition made it possible for investors to fund more for less cash.

In total, 16.7 gigawatts (GW) of projects reached a final investment decision – 12.5 GW onshore and 4.2 GW offshore – 45 percent more than in 2017, WindEurope said in its annual report.

Funding for the new investments rose to 26.7 billion euros ($30.3 billion).

Global commissioning of onshore wind turbines declined 3 percent in 2018, partly due to a slowdown in India and Germany. Growth is expected to bounce back in 2019, with a 32 percent jump to 60 GW.

Developers commissioned a little over 45 GW of onshore wind turbines globally in 2018 compared with 47 GW a year earlier. Just four manufacturers accounted for more than half, or 57 percent, of the machines deployed: Denmark’s Vestas, China’s Goldwind, GE Renewable Energy of the U.S.

According to the news of Polaris Firepower Network News, it was learned from the National Energy Labor Conference that the clean energy industry grew steadily in 2018. National renewable energy installed capacity, hydroelectricity, wind energy and photovoltaic energy production exceeded 700 million kilowatts.

In 2018, the newly added clean energy area in the northern region is estimated to be approximately 1.55 billion square meters and the clean heating rate will reach to 46%.
