Demand for wind power capacity is partly driven by the need for compliance with EU renewable energy targets. Attractive geographical advantages and tariff mechanisms offered by some East European nations provide immense scope for utilities and original equipment manufacturers to participate in wind power development in Europe.

The construction of newer, larger, and more sophisticated wind turbines for use on land and offshore will remain an ongoing trend in Europe through to 2050. With turbines growing bigger in terms of capacity, the generation of the same amount of energy can be achieved with fewer machines.
