June 15
Global Wind Day
In 2009, the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) and WindEurope joined forces to extend the reach from European wind associations and companies to coordinate Wind Day events across the globe (and changing the name to Global Wind Day).
Global Wind Day brings together communities, industry leaders, governments and campaigners across the world to celebrate wind energy – a clean, cost-effective and homegrown power source transforming our global energy system.
Each year on 15 June, events and campaigns highlight the benefits of wind energy and call for greater ambition to scale up deployment. From open days at wind farms to community events, exhibitions, educational workshops and digital campaigns, Global Wind Day is a reminder that wind energy is already delivering clean power, creating jobs and contributing to a more sustainable and secure future.
Why Wind Matters
Wind energy is one of the fastest-growing sources of electricity globally – and for good reason:
- Powering the energy transition: Wind power is a cornerstone of the shift away from fossil fuels. It is now among the cheapest sources of new electricity in many markets, enabling countries to decarbonise their grids rapidly and affordably.
- Strengthening global energy security: By reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels, wind energy boosts energy independence and shields economies from volatile global markets and geopolitical shocks.
- Accelerating climate action: To meet the Paris Agreement targets and limit global warming to 1.5°C, we must triple renewable energy capacity by 2030. Wind energy will provide the bulk of this new capacity.
