Wind power is a rapidly growing force in UK electricity generation, with the number and size of UK wind farms increasing in recent years. As the UK strives for net-zero emissions, abundant natural resources make wind energy the highest yielding option. Government support for renewables has boosted investment in wind-generating assets, with most of the capacity expansion coming from offshore wind. According to government data, the share of electricity generated from wind power increased from 17.1% in 2018 to 24.7% in 2022.
Companies in the Wind Power Generation industry operate wind farms across the UK. Wind farms contain wind-operated turbines that generate electricity for consumers from a renewable energy resource.
