Europe installed 19.1 GW of new wind power capacity in
2025. The EU‑27 accounted for 15.1 GW of this total.
90% of the wind capacity built in Europe last year was
onshore – and 77% of new wind installations in Europe
between 2026 and 2030 are expected to be onshore.
Germany built the most new wind power capacity in 2025.
Türkiye and Sweden followed. Germany, France, and the UK
were the only countries to install new capacity both onshore
and offshore.
Wind energy continues to play a key role in Europe’s
power system. In 2025, wind supplied 19% of all electricity
consumed in the EU‑27. The share was much higher
in several countries, reaching 50% in Denmark, 33% in
Lithuania and Ireland, 31% in the UK, and 30% in Sweden.
