Germany has the largest capacity of wind power out of all European Union member states. As of 2023, the country had installed roughly 69.5 gigawatts of onshore and offshore wind power plants. This was more than double the cumulative capacity available in Spain, where 30.7 gigawatts have been installed so far. Unsurprisingly, wind electricity generation was also highest in Germany.
