With its Nature Restoration Law the EU is planning new legislation to restore Europe’s natural ecosystems. The European Commission has proposed binding restoration targets for specific habitats and species. It aims to restore 30% of the EU’s degraded areas, and ultimately all ecosystems in need of restoration by 2050. WindEurope emphatically supports this target. 30% nature restoration does not undermine the EU’s climate and energy targets. On the contrary: nature restoration and wind energy expansion go hand in hand.

And recently amended legislation in Czechia aligns the position of wind energy development with other public interests and simplifies permitting processes. Governments in Central Europe must use the National Energy Climate Plans (NECPs) submission to translate these recent improvements into higher targets for wind energy.

But there is a clear increase in political support and the number of new wind farms under development in different countries.

Ireland successfully held its first-ever offshore wind auction. Four projects with a combined capacity of 3 GW were awarded. The average price of the winning bids was €86/MWh, much lower than expected. The successful completion of the auction is a breakthrough for renewables in Ireland and critical to achieving the targets set in Ireland’s 2030 Climate Action Plan.
