Europe's offshore wind installations fall behind target
2013-01-27 19:20:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: The number of wind turbines built in European waters is lagging behind targets by nearly 1,000 megawatts (MW), the equivalent of around 330 turbines, an industry report showed on Sunday. A total of 4,994 MW of offshore wind capacity is currently producing electricity in Europe's waters, but European Union (EU) countries had targeted an installation of 5,829 MW by the end of 2012, data published by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA) showed. The EU wants to generate 20 percent of its...
