The test marked the first real-world demonstration of power generation for the S2000 floating airborne wind energy system, also known as SAWES.
This autumn update outlines the latest data for wind energy in Europe and our expectations for the rest of the decade. Europe now has 291
Revolution Wind is the first commercial-scale offshore wind project in Rhode Island and Connecticut, supporting thousands of jobs and delivering affordable, reliable
In 2019, Goldwind was one of the first partners to sign up for a wind-to- hydrogen project in northeast China, in the hopes of putting China''s currently unused wind
Wind power took first place as the strongest net electricity producer, followed by photovoltaics, which increased its production by 21 percent in 2025
Wind power generation took place in the United Kingdom and the United States in 1887 and 1888, but modern wind power is considered to have been first developed in Denmark, where horizontal-axis
The increase in low-emissions power generation in 2025 outstripped total electricity supply growth Global electricity generation increased by over 850 TWh in 2025, with renewables accounting for the
Wind and solar have beaten gas in global electricity generation for the first time. Here is what the data shows, and what it means for energy and sustainability leaders.
At the same time, renewable power generation was steadily rising. Great Britain''s exposed position in the north-east Atlantic makes it one of the best locations in the world for wind power, and the shallow
Renewable energy has overtaken coal to become the world''s largest source of electricity in 2025, according to thinktank Ember. The growth of solar and wind
Read more about E.ON, our commitment to sustainability, focus on renewable energy sources, solutions, people, standards of service and more.
Electricity generation from wind established a new record in the United States in April, and wind generation exceeded coal-fired generation in both March and April, data from our July 2024
Solar and wind outpaced demand growth in the first half of 2025, as renewables overtook coal''s share in the global electricity mix.
As early as 5,000 BC, wind was used to propel boats along the river Nile. In 200 BC, wind-powered water pumps were being integrated in China and windmills were
Current generating capacity We own and operate the world''s largest portfolio of offshore wind farms. Our assets can be found off the coasts of Europe, the US,
James Blyth (Scotland): In July 1887, James Blyth, a Scottish electrical engineer, created a cloth-sailed wind turbine in Marykirk, Scotland, and used it to light his holiday home, making it the
This chapter comprehensively discusses wind power generation, tracing its evolution from historical windmills to modern large-scale wind farms, and analyzing its technical principles, resource
Renewable energy sources generated more electricity than coal globally for the first time in the first half of 2025, driven by rapid growth in China and India, a report by think tank Ember showed
Wind power only received occasional attention since the introduction of electricity until the 1970s, when a revived interest in alternative energy sources spurred the development thread that led

Wind power is the use of wind energy to generate useful work. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely using wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical grid.
Wind power generation refers to the technology of converting the kinetic energy of the wind into electric power through a wind turbine. The installation produces electricity by collecting and transforming
But more recent findings indicate that the world''s first functioning wind generator was installed, earlier than assumed, by the Austrian engineer Josef
Renewable energy helps further the energy transition, but developing, building, and operating offshore wind farms might also come with adverse impacts. From
