Villeurbanne, France, October 31, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Reportlinker.com proposes a market research search engine indexing most of the Energy Market Reports available from private and public domain.
Future energy development, providing for the world's future energy needs, currently faces great challenges.
These include an increasing world population, demands for higher standards of living, a need for less pollution, a need to avert global warming, and a possible end to fossil fuels.
The countries of the European Union are currently the global leaders in the development and application of renewable energy :
- Nuclear power
- Hydroelectricity
- Solar power
- Wind power
- Geothermal power
- Ocean thermal energy conversion
- Bioenergy
The market for European wind power capacity grew in 2006, according to statistics from the European Wind Energy Association. 7,588 MW of wind power capacity, worth some €9 billion, was installed in the European Union (EU) in 2006, an increase of 23% compared to 2005. For the seventh consecutive year, wind power is second only to gas-fired capacity (approximately 8,500 MW in 2006) in terms of new electricity generating installations. Germany and Spain continue to attract the majority of investments. In 2006 these two countries represented 50% of the EU wind power market.
The cumulative wind power capacity operating in the EU increased by 19% and now exceeds 48,000 MW in 2006. In an average wind year this will produce approximately 100 TW·h of electricity, equal to 3.3% of total EU electricity consumption.
Currently more than 25,000 wind farms are operating throughout Europe, and capacity is expected to double by 2015. According to the European Wind Energy Association, the industry will be worth $109 billion by 2020.[2]
Research from a wide variety of sources in various countries shows that support for wind power is consistently between 70 and 80 per cent amongst the general public (source : Wikipedia).
