Europe’s wind industry is delivering \u2014 19.1 GW installed in 2025, \u20ac45 billion committed to new wind pro-jects, 304 GW of total capacity, and 20% of Europe’s electricity. And this momentum is accelerating.
<\/br>The Copenhagen Call to Action in 2025 set a clear industry agenda, and in January 2026 the Hamburg Dec-laration turned that agenda into a landmark government commitment \u2014 nine North Sea nations reaffirm-ing the 300 GW ambition and committing to 100 GW through cross-border projects.<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n

Wind turbines without grids, however, are monuments, not power plants.<\/h3>\r\n

The declarations are done and now Madrid is where Europe must turn commitment into construction. That means treating grids as strategic infrastructure \u2014 with the permitting speed, investment frameworks, and supply chain certainty the Hamburg Declaration promised \u2014 because every \u20ac1 invested in grids saves \u20ac2 in system costs by 2040.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Hitachi Energy is the partner at that intersection: connecting offshore and onshore generation, helping to build the HVDC links, hybrid interconnectors, and cross-border corridors Europe is missing; making grids smarter with AI-enabled monitoring, cybersecurity, and digital control systems; and delivering at scale through a USD 9 billion investment program expanding manufacturing across Germany, Sweden, Spain, Finland, and Poland.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Wind alone will not secure Europe’s energy future. Wind + grids + digitalization will.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
