Wind Capacity Added in 2025
96,660megawatts installed this year
Understanding Wind Energy
Wind energy measures the capacity of wind turbines installed worldwide. Approximately 100 GW of new capacity is added annually. Our wind counter tracksMW per day, annual installations, and total global capacity.
Also known as wind power, wind turbines, and wind farms, this metric is closely related to renewable energy, clean electricity, and offshore wind.
Our wind energy data covers multiple dimensions including by country, onshore vs offshore, over time, and turbine technology.
