The association of green energy producers projects that the country’s capacity of electricity production from wind farms will reach 3,000MW by 2020. The association projects a steady increase from less than 100MW at present to 500MW by the end of 2010 and about 1,000MW in 2015. The estimates are based on ongoing projects and expert assessments on the potential for utilisation of wind resources in the long run. About EUR 500mn are to be spent on wind-power generators and EUR 100mn on solar installations next year, according to other estimates of the association.
