Wind

Wind energy harnesses the power of moving air to generate electricity using onshore and offshore wind turbines. As one of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy sources, wind power plays a vital role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening energy security and supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy.

SustainabilityOnline provides coverage of the latest wind energy developments, including offshore and onshore wind projects, clean energy investment, grid infrastructure, energy storage, corporate renewable energy strategies and evolving policy and regulation. We explore how organisations are increasing renewable electricity generation, investing in wind power, improving energy resilience and responding to changing sustainability legislation. We also examine developments in power purchase agreements (PPAs), industrial decarbonisation, sustainable finance and the role of wind energy in achieving net zero ambitions.

Related topics: wind energy, wind power, onshore wind, offshore wind, wind turbines, renewable energy, clean energy, energy transition, decarbonisation, renewable electricity, energy storage, power purchase agreements (PPAs), grid infrastructure, greenhouse gas emissions, climate policy, sustainable infrastructure, net zero, corporate sustainability and ESG reporting.

Renewable electricity generation recorded its fastest growth to date in 2024, increasing by 9.8%, compared to 1.4% for non-renewable generation, new data from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has revealed.
