National Energy and Climate Plans: A solar-powered energy system by 2030
The National Energy and Climate Plans confirm the bright future for solar in Europe, with 209 GW of solar PV capacity set to be added by 2030, or 19 GW per year. Solar will continue to be the most-installed energy generation technology in Europe between 2020 and 2030, together with wind energy.

Europe adds 6.1 GW of wind energy capacity in first half of 2017
6.1 GW of extra wind energy capacity was installed in Europe in the first half of 2017, according to figures released today by WindEurope. The figure puts Europe on course for a bumper year for installations, although hides some worrying trends.
A total of 4.8 GW of onshore wind capacity was installed in the first half of 2017, although it was heavily concentrated in Germany (2.2 GW), UK (1.2 GW) and France (492 MW). There has also been a flurry of activity in offshore wind: 18 projects in four EU Member States (Germany, UK, Belgium and Finland), which saw a total of 1.3 GW installed.

The Evolution of Solar Power
Global expansion of solar PV has been following an exponential curve for more than two decades, going as far as doubling over the past two years. Safe to say, solar power has a very bright future, but let’s see what its evolution looks like on the world map.
Greenbyte has just released an interactive map showing the cumulative installed solar power capacity per country, continent and the world between 1992-2015. The Evolution of Solar Power is the result of a cooperation between Greenbyte and SolarPower Europe.

Wind in power: 2016 European statistics
Europe installed 12.5 GW of gross additional wind capacity in 2016. This was 3% less than the new installations in 2015. With a total installed capacity of 153.7 GW, wind energy now overtakes coal as the second largest form of power generation capacity in Europe.
2016 annual figures
12.5 GW of new wind power capacity was installed and grid-connected in the EU during 2016, a decrease of 3% compared to 2015 annual installations. 10,923 MW were installed onshore, and 1,567 MW were installed offshore.

Europe risks losing its leadership in wind energy without a clear policy vision for renewables towards 2030.
Europe risks losing its leadership in wind energy without a clear policy vision for renewables towards 2030.
In 2015, China overtook the EU for total installed wind energy capacity, according to statistics released today by the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC). China installed almost 3 times as much wind than the EU and now has 145GW total capacity to the EU’s 142GW.
Giles Dickson, Chief Executive Officer of the European Wind Energy Association, said: “China overtaking the EU in wind energy is watershed moment. It sends a powerful message to policymakers: if Europe really wants to be number one in renewables it needs to get its act together. We need a clear EU vision for renewables beyond 2020. And great ambition and clarity from individual Member States.
