Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine two years ago shifted the geopolitical balance and transformed the energy outlook across Europe. Despite the devastation and challenges, Ukraine's resilience has been reflected in its determination to move forward with its wind energy sector to build a sustainable, renewable energy future in the post-war period.

Australia’s offshore wind sector is poised for significant growth, reveals a comprehensive study commissioned by the UK Government and conducted by Arup, a global firm specializing in engineering and consultancy. But how exactly will this burgeoning market shape the country’s energy landscape, and what role will the partnership with the UK play in this transformation?

Amidst the surge of innovation in renewable energy, a Norwegian startup, World Wide Wind (WWW), is making waves with a groundbreaking floating wind turbine design. With the recent approval to test its prototype off the southwest coast of Norway, this Oslo-based pioneer could be steering the world towards a future where the energy of our oceans is harnessed with unparalleled efficiency.

Wind energy accounts for 19% of Europe’s electricity consumption, with nearly all the continent’s wind turbines being manufactured domestically. This is supported by an extensive supply chain comprising over 250 factories across almost every EU Member State, providing employment for 300,000 people throughout Europe. But despite these formidable achievements, the sector is at a critical juncture.

Now that the dust has settled after the global pandemic, the wind energy sector — much like other industries — is navigating through a period of transformation and adaptation. This article explores how the wind industry should or is addressing challenges to continue its growth and maintain its vital role in our energy mix.

An ambitious renewable energy project, the Tres Termes wind farm, is currently under construction in the province of Tarragona in the Spanish region of Catalonia. The 30 MW project is an important part of the country's broader strategy to promote renewable energy in the region.

The European Union has made notable progress in renewable energy, surpassing its previous accomplishments in wind farm installations. But how did it capture a record-breaking 17 GW of new wind energy in 2023, and what does this mean for its renewable energy goals?

As the world’s largest producer and user of wind power, China is expected to face a wave of decommissioning in the coming years. Wind turbines installed in the early 2000s are reaching the end of their lives, and it remains to be seen how the country will handle the dismantling and disposal of these units. The first step has been made.

In 2023, wind turbine OEMs continued to captivate attention with their innovative models, setting new records in generation capacity and turbine size. This article offers an overview of the most impressive wind turbines that marked the year.
