Wind Industry Installs Record Capacity in 2024 Despite Policy Instability

Global Wind Energy Capacity Grew 117 GW in 2024: Global Wind Report

A new report from the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) has found that the world added 117 gigawatts of global wind energy capacity for 2024, matching the 117 gigawatts added in 2023. In its report, GWEC had promising outlooks, including a record high wind energy capacity globally and an estimated 1 terawatt of wind energy capacity to be installed worldwide by 2030. Newly added wind energy capacity for 2024 included 109 gigawatts from onshore so…

Record Wind Energy Installations Not Enough to Meet Renewables Goals

The world installed a record-high wind power capacity last year, but this isn’t enough to meet the goal of tripling renewable energy capacity by the end of the decade, the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) said in a new report on Wednesday. Globally, a total of 117 gigawatts (GW) of wind energy were installed in 2024—a record year for new capacity, the wind industry body said in its 2025 Global Wind Report. New wind capacity boomed despite polic…

Global wind capacity continues to grow year by year. After a record in 2023, a new wind capacity has just been established in 2024. Yet, this is still insufficient to meet the 2030 targets. Wind energy continues to grow in the world The Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) unveils its annual report, revealing that wind energy broke a new record in 2024. In total, 117 gigawatts (GW) of capacity have been installed in twelve months around the world. …

Total capacity exceeds 1,174 gigawatts - 121 gigawatts were added in 2024, slightly less than in the previous year. Dramatic decline of 18% outside

The World Wind Report of the World Wind Energy Council (GWEC) shows that 2024 was a record year for the new capacity, with 117 GW of installed wind energy worldwide. However, the GWEC warned of growing political instability in some markets and noted the need to improve licensing mechanisms, transmission to the network and auctions to keep pace with the global trend towards electrification, meet countries’ energy and climate objectives and reduce…
