What we do: acting on xxx: policy xxx Wind in 2020 and 2030 – EWEA’s targets In 2009, EWEA increased its targets for wind energy in 2020 and 2030. For more, see the ‘Pure Power’ report on www.ewea.org.
In 2010, EWEA focused much work on the development of the single energy market, supporting the decision-makers’ aim of an integrated European market by 2015. In June, EWEA published with the EU electricity industry body EURELECTRIC a declaration calling for grid development to facilitate a single market. In November, EWEA organised an event on power grids in Berlin – GRIDS 2010 – at which it launched a report and conference statement with TSO body ENTSO-E arguing that a fair, single market in electricity was essential to increasing Europe’s power supply from wind energy. During 2010, EWEA worked on a harmonised grid code for wind power through its Grid Code Working Group which, when implemented, will benefit wind turbine manufacturers, developers and operators. Wind energy in 2020 • 230 GW installed capacity: 190 GW onshore and 40 GW offshore • Meeting 15.7-16.5 % of EU electricity demand depending on total demand • Annual installations of 24.8 GW: annual investments of € 26.6 billion • 22.9 % of total electricity generating capacity in the EU • Producing 581 TWh of electricity, equivalent to the consumption of 131 million average EU households • Avoiding 341.6 Mt CO 2 annually • Avoided fuel cost of € 23.9 billion (assuming IEA forecast: fuel cost equivalent to $ 97.4 /bbl of oil) • Avoiding € 8.5 billion of CO 2 cost annually (assuming €25/t CO 2 ). Wind energy in 2030 • 400 GW installed capacity: 250 GW onshore and 150 GW offshore • Meeting 28.5 % of EU electricity demand depending on total demand • Annual installations of 23.7 GW; annual investments of € 25.3 billion • 36 % of total electricity generating capacity in the EU • Producing 1,554 TWh of electricity, equivalent to the consumption of 252 million average EU households • Avoiding 646 Mt CO 2 annually • Avoided fuel cost of € 51 billion (assuming IEA forecast: fuel cost equivalent to $ 108.2/bbl of oil) • Avoiding € 26 billion of CO 2 cost annually (assuming €40/t CO 2 ) Powering the energy debate ANNUAL REPORT 2010 19
