WIND ENERGY DENMARK –

There is a country in Europe that has already undergone the energy revolution: Denmark. Wind power now accounts for 42 percent of energy supplies and there are days during which, for 24 consecutive hours, all the electricity that is supplied to homes and offices comes from the wind. Furthermore, thanks to this revolution, Denmark exports up to 40 percent of the energy it produces on some particularly windy days.

"Denmark's record is a window into the future Europe can achieve. And it's no coincidence that the country sells energy to Sweden, Norway, and Germany," says Oliver Joy, spokesperson for the European Wind Energy Association. Wind power currently accounts for 10 percent of Europe's electricity supply and 262 jobs.: in 2030 this percentage could rise to 25 percent, that is, a quarter of the total. Consumers would thus save around 400 billion euros a year on gas, coal and oil imports.. Aside from the environmental benefits due to the vertical drop in harmful emissions resulting from the energy produced by the wind.

Returning to wind power in Denmark, It must be said that the record was also made possible by a significant economic policy, which has seen massive investments in this sector over the last thirty yearsAs for Italy, unfortunately, we are at the bottom of the class in this sector, with a paltry 107,5 megawatts installed in 2014.
