It is estimated that 6 countries in Europe will exceed 1 GW of onshore wind power installed capacity for the first time. This means that Europe is expected to add 20 GW of wind power installed capacity in 2021.
In 2021, the global installed capacity of offshore wind power will increase by 33% to 8.7 GW.
As the wind energy industry matures, more and more turbines have reached the end of their 20-year design life. Therefore, the agency expects that by 2021, onshore turbines with a capacity of about 4.8GW will face the above problems, but most of them (3.9GW) may need to be refurbished, and the rest will be decommissioned.
