Wind turbine

Under the flow of events that point forward, such as the prime minister's announcements on Saturday regarding the 36 measures to improve everyday life at the Thessaloniki International Fair, under shocking events that define new dimensions in common things, under the alternation of incidents that constantly modify the content of our lives, lies a parallel reality that emerges in almost every cr

The national offshore wind farm development program is in danger of sinking in the deep waters off Crete, as archaeologists consider that wind turbines may be deleterious to the landscape of archaeological sites.

Investments in wind farms totaling more than 110 million euros were connected to the grid during the first half of 2024, according to the Wind Energy Statistics announced by the Hellenic Wind Energy Association (ELETAEN).

Export revenues of Turkish wind energy equipment manufacturers increased from $1.5 billion in 2020 to $2.2 billion in 2023, according to İbrahim Erden, the president of the Turkish Wind Energy Association (TÜREB).

Türkiye is on a path to becoming a reliable supplier to the European wind energy supply chain, Erden told daily Hürriyet.

Hellenic Cables announced on Tuesday that the South Fork Wind offshore project in New York, in which it is involved, has been successfully completed, with the powering up of New York's first offshore wind turbine.

Four municipalities on the island of Evia (Karystos, Halkida, Kymi-Aliveriou and Eretria), as well as local forestry, environmental and mountaineering associations are requesting the annulment of the decisions for the installation of a large number of wind farms for electricity generation within forest areas.

Orders for wind turbines were up in the first half of the year compared to 2022, after a rebound in purchases in North America and strong volumes in China, said a study published on Sept. 1.

Between January and June turbine orders for capacity reached 69.5 gigawatts, a 12 percent rise over in the first six months of 2022, according to research firm Wood Mackenzie.

Rönesans Enerji has announced it has taken another key step towards achieving Türkiye's renewable energy goals with a milestone investment into three wind turbine projects with the Nordex Group.

This project will mark Rönesans Enerji's first renewable investment after TotalEnergies acquired a 50 percent stake in Rönesans Enerji last month.

New wind power farms with a total energy capacity of 252.5 megawatts and a total investment of 260 million euros were connected to the country's electricity grid in the first half of 2023, the Hellenic Wind Energy Association (HWEA) said in a report.

After nearly a decade of unsuccessful attempts to increase Slovenia's wind turbine count beyond two, the latest ambitious venture, involving 56 turbines on the Pohorje Plateau meant to supply 110,000 households, has encountered its set of challenges as well.
