Onshore wind projects to drive Europe's 2030 capacity expansion

Onshore wind projects are projected to make up 77% of all new wind power capacity planned across Europe by 2030, according to a report on Sunday.

Data compiled by Anadolu Agency (AA) ahead of Global Wind Day showed that wind energy has become one of the most effective renewable energy sources in the fight against climate change in recent years.

Among renewable energy technologies, onshore wind stands out as one of the most mature, economical, and widely implemented solutions.

Thanks to its ability to generate clean electricity, low carbon footprint, and potential to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, onshore wind offers significant advantages in combating climate change.

According to data from WindEurope, the umbrella organization of Europe's wind energy industry, electricity generation from renewable energy sources in Europe is expected to increase by 60% by 2030.
