With excellent wind conditions in our home markets, with improved turbine technology and economies of scale, wind power will be a key part of our move to zero-emissions electricity production. Renewable energy Wind is a one of the most important renewable energy sources. Zero emissions No CO₂ is released into the atmosphere when electricity is generated with Wind turbines. Improved efficiency Advancement in wind turbine technology has improved efficiency. Key numbers for 2018 All numbers are wind power totals for the year 158 megawatts (MW) of capacity 54 wind turbines 500+ Development portfolio (MW) Unlimited potential of wind power Wind power is an increasingly important source of renewable energy and there is an unlimited potential of wind. Clean energy production No CO2 is released into the air when producing electricity from vind since no fuel is used. As part of our commitment to a clean energy future, we will continue to invest in wind power. Advancement in technology The advancement in wind turbine technology with all larger rotor and higher turbines, has increased power capacity. The wind turbines are today more powerful and more efficient. FAQ - Wind power What is wind power? How does wind power work? How is wind power used? What happens when there is no wind? Where is wind energy used? Wind power and the environment Wind power is an emissions-free, renewable energy source that does not contribute to global warming. This means that the environmental impact is mainly connected to the infrastructure requirements of wind turbines and the electrical network. Strict requirements defined by the regulatory authorities need to be fulfilled in order to minimize the environmental impacts during construction and operation of a wind farm.
