• 11,791.4 MW of wind power capacity (worth between €13.1bn and €18.7bn) was installed in the EU during 2014, an increase of 3.8% compared to 2013 annual installations.
• Wind power is the generating technology with the highest rate for new installa-tions in 2014, accounting for 43.7% of total 2014 power capacity installations, 12 percentage points higher than during the previous year.
• Renewable power installations accounted for 79.1% of new installations during 2014: 21.3 GW of a total 26.9 GW of new power capacity, up from 72% the previous year.
•There is now 128.8 GW of installed wind power capacity in the EU: approxi-mately 120.6 GW onshore and just over 8 GW offshore.
• The EU total installed power capacity increased by 14.8 GW net in 2014 to 910.1 GW, with wind power increasing by 11.4 GW net and reaching a share of total installed generation capacity of 14.1%.
• Since 2000, 29.4% of new capacity installed has been wind power, 56.2% renewables and 91.1% renewables and gas combined.
• The EU power sector continues its move away from fuel oil and coal with both technologies continuing to decommission more than they install.
• Annual installations of wind power have increased over the last 14 years, from 3.2 GW in 2000, to 11.8 GW in 2014 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%.
• A total of 128.8 GW is now installed in the European Union, an increase in installed cumulative capacity of 9.7% compared to the previous year.
• Germany remains the EU country with the largest installed capacity followed by Spain, the UK and France. There are 15 EU countries with gigawatt-level wind power capacities installed, including two relatively new EU countries (Poland and Romania), and eight EU countries each have more than 4 GW of installed capacity.
• 59.5% of all new installations in 2014 were in just two countries (Germany and the UK), an increased concentration compared to 2013 (46% of total installations). 77.2% of all new installations were concentrated in the top four countries (Germany, the UK, Sweden and France).
• 2014 shows the negative impact of market, regulatory and political uncertainty sweeping across Europe. Destabilised legislative frameworks for wind energy are undermining investments.
• A number of previously large markets such as Denmark, Spain and Italy saw their rates of wind energy installations decrease significantly in 2014, by 90.4%, 84.3% and 75.4% respectively.
• Offshore wind saw almost 1.5 GW installed in 2014, 5.3% less than 2013. • The wind power capacity installed by the end of 2014 would, in a normal wind
year, produce 284 TWh of electricity, enough to cover 10.2% (of which 1% from offshore wind) of the EU’s electricity consumption – up from 8% the year before.

2014 annual installations
Wind power capacity installations
During 2014, 12,819.6 MW of wind power was installed across Europe, of which 11,791.4 MW was in the European Union.
Of the capacity installed in the EU, 10,308.1 MW was onshore and 1,483.3 MW offshore. In 2014, the annual onshore market increased in the EU by 5.3%, and offshore installations decreased by 5.3% compared to 2013. Overall, EU wind energy annual installations increased by 3.8% compared to 2013 installations.
Investment in EU wind farms was between €13.1bn and €18.7bn. Onshore wind farms attracted around €8.9bn to €12.8bn, while offshore wind farms accounted for €4.2bn to €5.9bn.
In terms of annual installations, Germany was the largest market in 2014, installing 5,279.2 MW of new capacity, 528.9 MW of which (10% of total capacity installed in Germany) offshore. The UK came in second with 1,736.4 MW, 813.4 MW of which (46.8%) offshore, followed by Sweden with 1,050.2 MW and France with 1,042 MW. The next countries are signifi-cantly behind: Poland with 444.3 MW and Austria with 411.2 MW.
The emerging markets of Central and Eastern EU installed 838 MW, 7.1% of total installations. In 2014, these countries represented a smaller share of the total EU market than in 2013 (16%). That is due to retroactive legislative changes in Romania and uncer-tainty on the impact of the Renewable Energy Sources Act on the support system and renewable energy market in Poland.
Moreover, 59.5% of all new EU installations in 2014 were in just two countries, Germany and the United Kingdom, a similar trend to the one seen in 2013.
A number of previously large markets such as Denmark, Spain and Italy have seen their rate of wind energy installations decrease significantly in 2014, by 90.4%, 84.3% and 75.4% respectively.
Offshore accounted for 12.6% of total EU wind power installations in 2014, confirming the high level of concentration in annual installations during 2014.

WIND IN POWER: 2014 EUROPEAN STATISTICS
THE EUROPEAN WIND ENERGY ASSOCIATION
Total installed power capacity
Wind power’s share of total installed power capacity has increased five-fold since 2000; from 2.4% in 2000 to 14.1% in 2014. Over the same period, renewable
FIGURE 7: EU POWER MIX 2000 (MW) FIGURE 8: EU POWER MIX 2014 (MW)
FIGURE 6: NET ELECTRICITY GENERATING INSTALLATIONS IN THE EU 2000-2014 (MW)
The net growth since 2000 of wind power (116.8 GW), gas (101.3 GW) and solar PV (87.9 GW) was at the expense of fuel oil (down 25.3 GW), coal (down 24.7 GW) and nuclear (down 13.2 GW). The other renewable technologies (biomass, hydro, waste, CSP, geothermal and ocean energies) have also been increasing their installed capacity over the past decade, albeit more slowly than wind and solar PV.
Net changes in EU installed power capacity 2000-2014
The EU’s power sector continues to move away from fuel oil, coal, nuclear and gas while increasing its total installed generating capacity with wind and solar PV. In 2014 gas decommissioned more MW than what it installed but still has the most overall built capacity.

THE EUROPEAN WIND ENERGY ASSOCIATION10 THE EUROPEAN WIND ENERGY ASSOCIATION
National breakdown of wind power installations
In 2000, the annual wind power installations of the three pioneering countries – Denmark, Germany and Spain – represented 85% of all EU wind capacity. By 2013, they represented only 36.2% of total installa-tions. In 2014 installations in the three pioneering countries together represented 45.6% of the EU market and were mainly driven by the 63% German market growth.
Moreover, in 2000, the countries that make up the 132 newer EU Member States had no wind energy, while
in 2014 they reached 7.9% of the EU’s total market. However, 85.7% of those installations were in just two countries: Poland and Romania.
This indicates that the policy instability facing renew-ables in numerous countries in the EU is leading to an increased concentration of wind energy installation in a handful of countries with stable frameworks.

The wind energy capacity currently installed in the EU would produce in an average wind year 284 TWh of
electricity, enough to cover 10.2% of the EU’s total electricity consumption3.
3 Wind energy penetration levels are calculated using average capacity factors onshore and offshore and Eurostat electricity con-sumption figures (2012). Consequently, table 1 indicates the approximate share of consumption met by the installed wind energy capacity at the end of 2014. The figure does not represent real wind energy production over a calendar year. The most recent data (2012) for EU 28 final energy consumption of electricity from Eurostat, is 2,798 TWh.
