According to the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA), net additional wind <strong>en</strong>ergy<br />

capacity installed in the EU during 2010 came to 9,259 MW, some 10 % less than in 2009.<br />

Thus at the <strong>en</strong>d of 2010, wind <strong>en</strong>ergy plants with a total capacity of 84,074 MW were<br />

installed in the EU [100].<br />

The global wind <strong>en</strong>ergy market also slowed down in 2010 compared with previous years, according<br />

to the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC). Net capacity added totalled 35,802 MW,<br />

or 7 % less than in 2009. As in the previous year, China headed the Top T<strong>en</strong> list of market players.<br />

With record additions of 16,500 MW it accounts for nearly half the global market volume.<br />

It is followed a considerable way behind by the USA, which with 5,115 MW only achieved half<br />

the previous year’s additional capacity. The other rankings with more than 1 GW were India<br />

(2,139 MW), Spain (1,516 MW), Germany (1,493 MW) and France (1,086 MW) [111].<br />
